When Stuff Goes Right


Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful.

Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.

Colossians 3:15-17

The Bible says a lot about the bad times that the early Christians suffered, but it also indicates that they had times of great joy.

Paul in his letter to the Colossians reminds them that they need to be thankful to God and to celebrate His love and care for them. 

When things are going wrong, we run to God and plead for help.  We need to remember when things are going right, to run to God with our thanks and praises.
