The Multiplying Effect
Thankfulness can be quite a personal thing. It’s felt in those silent moments in the car when you look at the world around you, and are grateful to God for the part He’s enabled you to play in it. Or, when you’re immersed in the chaos of a family meal and smile with appreciation for the wild bunch that is ‘yours’.
In 2 Corinthians, we see how personal thankfulness is tied to generosity, and with that, widespread gratefulness toward God.
The reason God enriches our lives is so we can enrich others'. Whether through the generosity of kindness, encouraging a workmate or meeting a financial need in the community, everything within your hand holds the potential to spark thankfulness toward God in someone else.
Oftentimes, we view thanksgiving as a way to be aware of what we’re blessed with, and to honour those who gave it to us or made our situation possible. But what if we took it one step further and looked at the food we’re grateful for, the car we’re so happy to have and the friends we love, and considered how they could spark praise in someone else?
Is there someone you know who needs a ride to work? A new acquaintance who could do with a night of fun with friends? When you consider all you’re thankful for today, why not consider how it could be used to make someone else thankful too.

It’s safe to say that this year has not gone according to plan. However, despite all the turmoil and uncertainty, God is still at work. We still have so much to be thankful for. Take time this week to reflect, consider and be thankful for all that God has done this year, all that He has bestowed upon you, and for the people He has surrounded you with.
