Thankfulness Produces Gratitude to God (2 Corinthians 9)
Did you know there's a cycle of gratitude? When you're grateful for all God has done it changes how you act towards others. A little of your thankfulness can't help but spill over to others. Then as 2 Corinthians 9 tells us, your generosity results in them giving thanks to God. Men will "praise God" because of your obedience and the grace of God evident within you. So, your thankfulness to God produces kindness toward others which produces in them gratitude towards God. Nice. Happy Thanksgiving!
