We Give Thanks (3)

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (Philippians 4:8 AV)

Life is Abundantly Good (5th post)

David's Prayer from 1 Chronicles 29: 10-13 (NIV)

12 Wealth and honor come from you;
you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.


If God has the power and resources to exalt all why doesn’t everyone ask Him, seek it, and knock on the doors that can lead them to it?
