Title Thank you to those who know grace
Before pouring hot lead that melted in his mouth, the martyr St. Boniface said, “Lord Jesus, I give thanks, Son of the living God.
It is impossible to even imagine without a great believer.
People express gratitude when they have been given some benefit.
The same is true of Christians.
Those who have faith, those who have great faith, give thanks in everything.
Because they believe in God's guidance and protection for their entire daily life.
The Lord has promised to be with those who believe to the end of the world.
1. Grace from sin
There are people who enjoy many benefits and yet are not grateful.
Those who do not know grace. This includes children who do not know the grace of their parents and those who do not know God's grace.
Shakespeare said that having an ungrateful child is “more painful than being bitten by a viper.”
Those who do not know grace do not know how to be thankful.
The saints give thanks to the Lord because they recognize that their salvation is by grace.
Those who had no choice but to die for their sins were freed from that bond by the special grace of the Lord.
Knowing this amazing and amazing fact, we are always living with a grateful heart, regardless of the circumstances or circumstances of our lives.
Because those who complain or grumble do not know that they are saved by grace from sin.
♣ Salvation not to be proud of
Because the salvation of the saints is not due to human works, but only by the sovereign grace of God, no one can boast of himself because of salvation. If a man boasts of himself because of the salvation he has received, he is forgetting God's sovereignty in salvation and stealing the glory of God. It only testifies to the glory of God who bestowed the grace of salvation. Because God performed the work of salvation to ultimately receive His glory, He accomplished salvation with perfect grace so that no one could steal that glory. The way for the saints to glorify God through God's grace is to offer a sacrifice of praise with their lips and do good works that are pleasing to God. Paul testifies against this that the saints were created in Christ Jesus for good works.

Yes Tue---Birds' Complaints
When God finished creating all the animals, the birds began to complain. Why do we give our birds thick wings instead of strong legs?
Wings are for flying, not for walking. Wings are a special gift given to birds. Wings are a condition of gratitude, not of complaints. Realizing the providence of creation, the eagle spread its wings and flew vigorously into the sky. Then other birds began to fly. It used wings. It changed the paradigm of thinking from the earth to the sky.
2. Grace to always care
God not only saved us, but He is with us and cares for us until the end of the world.
We can find many promises related to this in the Bible.
His care includes provision for needs, guidance on the safe and right path, and protection from all dangers and troubles.
David exclaimed, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1).
I was able to say that I am not afraid to walk through the valley of the shadow of man because I am convinced of the grace of the Lord's care.
The same person who worked in David's life is doing the same in our lives today.
Therefore, we should appreciate and appreciate all the benefits we enjoy, including safety and peace, through grace.
Gratitude is not something that can be squeezed out.
It has value only when it comes from the depths of the heart.
People of faith are truly grateful to the Lord because they know the grace and blessings they have received, and the promises they will enjoy.
A life without gratitude is dark.
Even if you go to church and have many things, you will never be happy because you are living without the Lord.
☞ By grace you have been saved through faith: This verse repeats what was said in verse 5, but has two differences from verse 5. (1) There is no article in grace in verse 5, but in this verse there is the article ‘te’. This suggests that it is the same as the ‘grace’ mentioned in the previous verse (v. 7). (2) There is no ‘because of faith’ in verse 5, but it appears in this verse. 'Faith' is the means by which salvation can exert influence on man by giving up the act of self-righteousness and expecting God's mercy. Christians are saved by accepting and responding to God's redeeming grace in Christ.
☞ This is not from you, it is a gift from God: Here, ‘this’ can be seen as the whole process of salvation.
Yea---no hope anymore
Two patients visited the hospital. One had a very bad stomach.
Another person had an intestinal disorder that could be cured with a little treatment.
However, it is said that the chart was accidentally reversed and delivered to the patient in the opposite direction.
I was delighted to be informed that the patient with serious symptoms was no big deal.
I drove away the worries and stress I had so far and lived in hope.
After a while, the patient is said to have been cured. However, when the patient was notified that he was seriously ill, he lost his confidence and wandered in worry and anxiety, and soon became a seriously ill patient.
Think good. say good things Say words of hope. What you say will be what you think.
Dear saints,
Let us thank God for His grace in the circumstances we have been given.
Don't complain about your circumstances, let's have hope.
