Thankfulness “This know also, that in the last days … men shall be … unthankful” (2 Timothy 3:1-2). Yes, this is certainly a day of thanklessness! It is one of the great proofs that we are living in days just before the Lord comes back. But that is not how it is to be with the believer. Over and over again in the Bible we are challenged to cultivate the spirit and habit of thanksgiving. Here are some encouragements in that regard: “Be ye thankful” (Colossians 3:15). “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name” (Psalm 100:4). “Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:20). “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Most of all, we should be thankful that God sent His Son to be our Savior. Every day we should look up and say, “Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable gift” (2 Corinthians 9:15).
