Give thanks

Eph 5:20 KJV
(20) Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Do you thank God always for all things? It can be very hard to do. We often do not want to thank God for the problems.

I remember the joke that says a person asked God to teach Him patience so God sent to him difficult people to get along with. While it is a joke, it is so very true. We need to learn to thank God in all situations, so all situations get presented to us. Do all of them come from God? I do not think so, some come from Satan. We do however have to deal with them all. We need to be thankful no matter what happens.
