(who made you?)
Good morning My People. Good early morning.
Thank Me now for the air around you. Thank Me now for the pleasant thoughts I wish to share with you. Thank Me now for the pen and paper. Thank Me now for the silence that you can hear.
What I am encouraging you to do is, first and foremost, to be thankful – a thankful people.
When we say thanks, our body and soul are in a very gentle place. We do not look around for the unpleasant, but we endeavor to thank God for the smallest, sometimes most insignificant things.
“thank you” keeps you in a gracious, happy mode. Looking ahead at the day with optimism.
Otherwise you greet the day with fears, impatience, a growl on your face, in your soul.
You must admit that ‘thank you’ says it so much better.
Thank you for the blanket, thank you for the bed, thank you for my eyesight, thank you for all things, even the small things I happen to miss Lord as I go through my day.
Ask Me to remind you to say thanks. Because I assure you it will keep you in a better state of mind and soul.
Just look around you right now and thank Me for whatever you see, touch, smell, feel.
See the stillness in all around you. See how they are there to delight you and bring new occasions of thanks into your heart.
Look at the obedience of all that is around you. That may sound crazy, but each object is playing the part for which it was created! Right?
The lamp holds the lightbulb that gives light that comes on when you turn it on, but can’t come on if it is not plugged in and if electricity is not flowing from the plug into and through the wire to the lamp.
Thank Me for all the parts of the lamp that I Created allowing you to have light to write by. We think these are man-made. But who made man?
Get back to the Source of ALL and give thanks to the Source of ALL.
Ground your thanks in the Source of ALL.
The cloth to cover the table did not make itself. The machines made to make the cloth did not make themselves. The people who made the machines did not make themselves.
Who made you? God made you.
BE grounded in Me because you are grounded in Me.
It is when we move away from the Source of our very being that we get lost and befuddled.
Thank Me for Creating you.
Thank Me for Creating you as I did. Not as you wish I had, but as I did.
Thank Me that I am able and willing to fix all the parts of you that may have been broken or damaged over the years.
My Hand is on each of My Creations always offering My Help and Sustenance.
Thank Me this day for this reminder that I am your Creator and I am delighted with My Creation.
