Default Giving thanks

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love.

I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God
Honor thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places

Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen

Love a friend in God

It is always good to give thanks to God for everything. There is nothing that we have that does not come from Him.
Also, it is often good to thank him for things that often don't seem like something to be thankful for. Sometimes I feel lonley and alienated, and I think how awful it is...until I realize that maybe God is trying to teach me to find that I am never lonley as long as He is there. And He is always there. Thank Him for trials as well as blessings. Trials are what make us stronger and more faithful once we have overcomed them.

Yeah, I know sometimes I fail at giving God thanks. I just get too wrapped up in life and such. so its really nice to just take some time outta life and remember that God gave us everything!

It's so easy to take things for granted until they're gone.

I do not know of a higher form of faith, or anything that brings us into closer communion with God, and gives us greater victory and peace in the Christian walk than being able from the heart to thank God for all of the circumstances in our lives, the bad as well as the good
