Title: Thankfulness is a Tool

Introduction:
Thankfulness is an essential tool for all believers. It’s a sacrifice, a form of praise, and a key to personal growth in Jesus Christ. Just like any tool, the more you use it, the better you get with it. This sermon explores how thankfulness can be one of the greatest tools you have at your disposal and why it must be used regularly.

Scripture References:
* Psalm 50:14-15
* 1 Timothy 4:4-5
* Psalm 50:23
* Psalm 100:4
* Colossians 3:16-17
* Colossians 4:2

Sermon Points:
* Thankfulness is a form of faith!
* Thankfulness enables us to worship!
* Thankfulness removes a burden of responsibility!

Closing:
Perhaps the unfortunate circumstance of your life isn’t as unfortunate as it feels right now. Perhaps the valley you are going through will be the very thing that will catapult you in your walk with Christ! Thankfulness is the very tool you need right now to see you through this very painful thing that you are enduring. Thankfulness is not something that is going to come naturally! This is not a fruit of the Spirit. Thankfulness is a commitment! You have to decide whether or not you are going to pick that tool up and use it or leave it in the toolbox and keep complaining about what you can’t change. Let the Lord remove that burden from your life with a devoted thankfulness to celebrate who God is and all that he has done for you despite what you may be enduring.
