Every Breath We Draw Is A Gift From God

Text for Today: Daniel 5:1-30 “And you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven…., you have not glorified God.” (vs. 23).

 Gratitude is our ability to see and acknowledge the grace of God at work in our lives day by day, without grumbling over our outstanding desires and requests. To be grateful is to recognize the love of God in every situation.

Every breath we draw is a gift of God and every moment of existence is a function of His grace. Gratitude is a good virtue we must all imbibe and engage in at all times. And whatever good deeds or virtue a man is being taught or encouraged to do today, and he choose to ignore it, don’t fight with him, very soon he will learn it in a very bitter way and come to his senses.

God is a faithful God, who will always surround us with good people who will always call us to order whenever we want to go astray, but it is left to us to take the wise counsel and move ahead in life, or we reject it and face the consequences. Everyone, will definitely come face to face with the truth according to the time of life one day.

However, some people will get to this point with tears and sorrow. That was exactly what happened to king Nebuchadnezzar, who had to suffer and live like an animal before he realized that all glory must be returned to God for whatever we become in life.

When you see a man ascribing the glory that should be given to God to himself, then you have just seen a man that will soon be humiliated and taught a lesson in a bitter way. Beloved, there are many things in your life you must be grateful for, irrespective of your present challenges. Be wise!

 You are a Champion!

Further Study: Joshua 7:1-26.
