One Can’t Spend Too Much Time On The Topic of Thankfulness

[Tweet "One says thanks automatically. One gives thanks spontaneously."]
For Christian's it's not enough to be thankful, God expects us to have an abundance of thanks. Explore 5 reasons from the Bible how to overflow with thanks!

There is a pilgrim few people know about, Robert Cushman. He was one of the business agents for the pilgrims and played a key role in the pilgrims' story.

My journey of faith started when I was nine years old when I realized that Jesus died and rose again to pay for my sins. At the age of thirteen I felt the call of God on my life for ministry.
I have been fortunate to work in the marketplace for over ten years and in full-time Christian ministry for over thirty years.

It is my greatest joy to see God work through me to produce fruit for His glory!
