The Apostle Paul’s admonition to each Christian, “Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord [by faith], so walk in Him [by faith], having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude” (Col 2:6-7). We are to trust Jesus in everything and for everything. He said, “For apart from Me you can do nothing” (Jon 25:5). When Jesus is in charge it will be natural to be thankful.
