Presentation transcript:

Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

To whom is he thankful?

Joshua prayers

Not giving thanks: Ignoring the obvious (the background stuff): Romans 1:18-20

“The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God.”

Jeremiah 2:13 It is a rebellious thing, to intentionally choose and pursue that which you know to be false, wanting it to be true.

It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. ~~~~~~~~~~ Have your theology straight In Jewish theology, God is described by what he does and who else has followed him. Rahab’s testimony “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” “Our God is the God who brought us out of Egypt.” “For what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do the deeds and mighty works you do?” Deuteronomy 10:14-22 / Psalm 136

We are to be set apart, to exemplify his love and mercy. Purpose.

It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. ~~~~~~~~~~ Have your theology straight Have you anthropology straight Walk in tight relationship to him Like sheep need a shepherd, we need him.

Understand the need to pass on the life/teaching

Being thankful Acknowledges God’s place in our life and the universe (keeps our world view right) Admits your place in God’s universe (humility & accountability) Anticipates future provision (less worry) Advances our relationship (living loved)
