In Everything Give Thanks

We are reminded as Christians to give thanks in all things. Jesus gives us an example of true gratitude when He shares communion with His disciples and on a night of great difficulty and betrayal He breaks bread and gives thanks. The very same way in our time of great trial and betrayal we are to give thanks to God for the privilege of being the broken body of Jesus Christ and for the privilege of being broken for one another. We are not to be thankful FOR everything but we are to be thankful IN everything. We must allow ourselves to be broken for Jesus so that we may be nourishment for someone.
