Thankful In Love

Do you struggle with remaining thankful during the day-to-day trials of life? You're probably all thinking, "Join the club". It's common knowledge that we humans are more apt to find things to complain about than find things to be grateful for. During this time of year, it's easy to count our blessings and be thankful for the big picture of our lives, but much more difficult to keep a heart of gratitude each day in the small things. We have to remember that even our trials often end up being blessings in disguise, or at least lead us to those blessings. This week at Friendship, we'll continue in our series called "The Truth About Love" and discuss how remaining thankful can spur us to love one another as Christ commands. If you struggle with gratitude and feel overwhelmed by your trials, this is a message you don't want to miss!
