Thankful for God With Us + My Dad

Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring

Hey there OOBTers! Before we get started today, please know that this episode is coming to you from a place of deep heartbreak, loss, and grief mixed with a whole lot of thankfulness and gratitude. “Both/And.” Hard and Good. Joy and Pain. Truthfully, on this side of heaven, we seem to always live in the tension of having both joy AND pain in our lives in one form or another … all at the same time. Often found in varying degrees of more joy or more pain, but both are present. Always. Right now. Be sure to listen in for some questions to consider and some practical ways you can begin (even today) to develop a gratitude practice in your own lives - just in time for Thanksgiving and all the days to follow. This doesn’t mean that we have to thank God for our hard circumstances, but we can certainly thank Him through them + be on the lookout for all of His blessings in the midst of it all… to fight for thankfulness to God for being with each one of us in the hard and the good. Emmanuel. God With Us. Amazing. Just AMAZING. For the full episode show notes, please go to https://mfahring.com/thankful-for-god-with-us-my-dad/.
