Show Notes

A primary basis of being happy and satisfied in life is being thankful.  Rather than presenting thankfulness as an option , the Bible actually commands us to be thankful. Rather than waiting for an event to be thankful for, our thankfulness should come first. The Bible gives us keys and examples to help us be thankful in every situation, good, bad, in plenty or in need.
