Daily Christian quotes to direct, inspire, encourage, and help ordinary Christians in the rough and tumble of their daily lives!
God loves a thankful Christian! Job thanked God when He took all away: “The Lord has taken away — blessed be the name of the Lord!” Job 1:21. Many will thank God when He gives; Job thanks Him when He takes away, because he knew that God would work good out of it.
— Thomas Watson (1620-1686)
In thanking God, we fasten upon His favours to us; in praising and adoring God, we fasten upon His perfections in Himself.
— Matthew Henry (1662-1714)
I think that is a better thing than thanksgiving: thanks-living. How is this to be done? By a general cheerfulness of manner, by an obedience to the command of Him by whose mercy we live, by a perpetual, constant delighting of ourselves in the Lord, and by a submission of our desires to His will.
— C. H. Spurgeon
Thanksgiving is good but thanks-living is better.
— Matthew Henry
Thanksgiving is not a natural virtue; it is a fruit of the Spirit, given by him.
— Jerry Bridges
