Sometimes it’s difficult to smile and thank God when something is not going right in our lives. It’s hard to pretend that you’re happy when you are broke, jobless, lost, and broken-hearted. Reality is, we only know and appreciate His goodness when things are going our way. It’s not easy to thank Him when the road gets bumpy and you don’t understand what’s happening. But when the storm is over, you’ll realize that it was Him who helped you get through it all.
Thank God even when a friend leaves because He wants you to know that He is enough.
Thank God even when you didn’t get the promotion maybe because He wants you to improve or a better job is waiting for you.
Thank God even when you’re rejected, remember that the world rejected Him first.

Thank God for the failures because He wants you to understand the true meaning of success.
Thank God even when you’re family is broken because He wants you to know that you are a child of a King.
Thank God even for the broken promises for He restores everything.
Thank God even for the people who hate you because you don’t need to find your worth in them.
Thank God even for the tears because He wants you to experience pure joy.
Thank God even when its dark for He is the light.
Thank God even when you don’t understand why you’re hurting because He wants you to trust in Him.

Life isn’t always fair but God is an all-knowing god who knows even the smallest details of our lives. He knows what you need and when you exactly need it. So trust, let go, and believe that everything happens for a reason.
