Do you ever think about what Jesus did for you? Other than dying on the cross to save you from your sin? Do you think about the miracles and things he did here on earth even through all the ridicule? He did that to show the world who he is. He did it so that we as people could one day have the relationship we can with him now. Is that not the most amazing thing you've ever heard? Everything he ever did was for you. Do you ever thank him for that? Thank God for making it happen and it being His ultimate plan? Thank Him that you're allowed to be a part of this and have the relationship you do with Him? Do you ever praise Him for all that He has done for you? Don't just say "I praise Him when I go to church and sing hymns and pray and on and on." Do you ever praise Him in your own life for all that He has done for you? Do you listen to the Christian radio station in your car and sing along? Or do you listen some other stuff thats considered real music: that stuff kids listen to these days? Do you constantly thank Him for the people in your life and what He has done through those people? Do you thank Him for your family and what you do have instead of sitting around wishing for what you don't have? Do you thank Him for each new day He gives you and each next breath? Thanks is a form of praise. Think about how much you do or lack to thank Him. Remember what He has done for you. Make some sacrifices yourself for putting Him first in your life. I think you have room to make sacrifices considering all that He has done for you.
John 2:11 (NLT)
This miraculous sign at Cana in Galilee was the first time Jesus revealed his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
Luke 23:35-36 (NLT)
The crowd watched and the leaders scoffed. “He saved others,” they said, “let him save himself if he is really God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.” The soldiers mocked him, too, by offering him a drink of sour wine.
Psalm 92:1-5 (NLT)
It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to the Most High.
It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning,
your faithfulness in the evening,
accompanied by the ten-stringed harp
and the melody of the lyre.
You thrill me, Lord, with all you have done for me!
I sing for joy because of what you have done.
O Lord, what great works you do!
And how deep are your thoughts.
