ST.

PAUL
IN EVERYTHING WE GIVE THANKS
EPHESIANS 5:20

"GIVING THANKS AT ALL TIMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST

TO OUR GOD FATHER:

THE SECRET TO GIVING THANKS TO GOD NOT ONLY IN GOOD TIMES, NOT

ONLY FOR GOOD THINGS BUT ALSO FOR ALL THINGS IS TO GIVE THANKS

IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.

BEING ABLE TO GIVE THANKS IN EVERYTHING AND HE NOW LIVES IN US. IN

OURSELVES, WE HAVE NO WAY TO GENUINELY THANK GOD FOR

EVERYTHING, INCLUDING THE DISTRESSING, TROUBLING AND UNPLEASANT

THINGS.

IN ORDER TO THANK GOD FOR THESE THINGS, FOR ALL THINGS, WE HAVE

TO LIVE BY A NEW PERSON BY CHRIST IN US.

TO GIVE THANKS SEEMS LIKE SUCH A SIMPLE MATTER. WE TEACH OUR

CHILDREN TO GIVE THANKS WHEN SOMETHING IS GIVEN FOR THEM.

PAUL COULD GIVE THANKS IN EVERYTHING BECAUSE HE WAS ONE WITH

THIS WONDERFUL JESUS WHO WAS LIVING IN HIM AND WHO LIVED A

THANKING LIFE IN ALL SITUATIONS.

WE HAVE TO GIVE

THANKS IN

EVERYTHING BY

BEING ONE WITH

THE LORD WHO

LIVE IN US.

LOVE AND PEACE

WILL LEAD US TO

EVERLASTING LIFE

WE LIVE AND ACT

IN THE PERSON

OF CHRIST IN

OUR SPIRIT AND

ENJOY HIS LIFE

ON US.
