THANKS GIVING AND THANKS LIVING: The Power & Essence Of HIGHER ALTITUDE!
GRATITUDE of hearts is a gracious ATTITUDE for one’s ALTITUDE in life and grace in Christ Jesus stead. Hence there’s the need to live a GRATEFUL and THANKFUL life in all circumstances.
When you come to a place of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT in life and grace, of not only GIVING God THANKS at the point of INCIDENCE; but you have a LIVING ATTITUDE to give THANKS ALWAYS without prejudice – I mean an atmosphere wherein you just LIVE in the REALM of THANKS – such a heartfelt ATTITUDE of the will, it will ALWAYS reciprocate an ALTITUDE beyond human words, knowledge and understanding as the Holy writ do encourage.
I therefore purge you to ensure that your THANKS GIVING act of GRATITUDE becomes a THANKS LIVING ATTITUDE for your ALTITUDE!
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
