THANKS BE TO GOD !
This coming Sunday, the first in November, our Presidency message will focus on gratitude and thanksgiving, especially to our Heavenly Father and his son Jesus Christ.
"And in nothing doth man offend God, or against none is His wrath kindled, save those who confess not His hand in all things, and obey not His commandments. ( Doctrine and Covenants 59:21)
Please read part of King Benjamin's address at Mosiah 2:19-21, and then read of the magnificence of God that Isaiah describes in Isaiah, chapter 40.
Shakespeare's King Lear said "How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is, to have a thankless child." Have you ever experienced an ungrateful child or a thankless friend? - or been an ungrateful child/adult? Does God want our gratitude because He needs it? Or do we need it? Come Sunday, and let's discuss.
Gratitude is not only the greatest of all virtues, but a parent to all other.
