Saying ‘Thank You’ with written words for a gift

According to the Bible, older women are to give Godly advice to younger women, to teach them good things and proper etiquette.  It may not seem important to you, nonetheless, when you receive a gift from someone, you should send them a note of thanks.  It doesn’t have to be a long letter, but a card (even from the Dollar Store) means a lot to the person who took time to think of you and bless you.  Sure, you told them ‘Thank You” at that moment, but a card lasts longer and shows them that it wasn’t just something that one says at that particular time.

Below is an excerpt from “Where Did That Come From?” that puts into written words, the sentiment of what a person should do when a blessing is bestowed upon them in the form of righteousness and the love of God.

The Gift

                                     (Read it all on Victoria Poller.com)

When someone gives you something that you didn’t expect, by all means, say “Thank You”, and then get a card and a stamp (sure the price of stamps is getting higher as time goes by, but it will be worth the money) to express your gratitude for “The Gift” that was given to you.

“Continued Thanks Being Unto God”

(August 22, 1997)

“Lord, I had forgotten to thank You for my daughter getting the part-time job that she wanted, but Father, she’s only a junior in high school.  I don’t want her to miss out on her teenage years.  I don’t want to spoil her but to bless her with a used car.  She wants to be able to buy clothes, so she doesn’t have to wear the same clothes over and over again.  I know other teens work, but Lord I don’t want her to have to work in order to get some of the things she wants.  I know that this is the honest way and that she will be a stronger person for her endeavors.  I want her to enjoy her young adult life as a teenager, yet it was a desire of her heart to work and go to school.  After-school jobs are okay, but a students’ first and most important job should be bringing home good grades.”

Thank You…For What?

“In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Prov. 3:6

“Thank You Jesus.” “Thank You Jesus.” “Thank You Jesus.” “Thank You Jesus.” “Thank You Jesus.” “Thank You Jesus.”

This was the phrase that use to be used to invite the Holy Ghost (Spirit) into a person’s life. We’ve learned that the Holy Spirit is a precious gift. He comes willingly to those who request Him. But let’s get back to Jesus. “Thank You Jesus”.

One morning (very early as it was so customary for the Lord to visit) God whispered to me, “Why do you thank Me?” “What are you giving thank for?”

Why do we sometimes unconsciously repeat, “Thank You Jesus”, and that’s the end of the sentence. Yes, I too was guilty of saying, “Thank You Jesus”. Just a blurb of what I thought was an announcement of appreciation. But what was I being thankful for?

Sure we may say, “Thank you” to a person when they hand you something, but the statement is usually said face-to-face and usually right after the kindness is rendered. Example: Someone gives you a gift in a pretty package and you say, “Thank you” (later you can write them a little card and express how the gift and their act of kindness really blessed you).

He (God) made it a little clearer to me. It’s like you go to your friend, a relative or a complete stranger and you say, “Thank you Lou, or Thank you Aunt Tillie, or Thank you Dad”; and you keep repeating, “Thank you” [name] and you say nothing else. Eventually that person is going to say, “What!” “What did I do?” “Why are you thanking me?”

It’s the same thing with God. “Thank You Jesus”… Sooner or later He’ll want you to tell Him what you’re thankful for. “Thank You Jesus for getting me up this morning.” “Thank You Jesus for showing my child favor before the Court Judge.” “Thank You Jesus for sending your Angels to protect me from that fatal car crash.” “Thank You Holy Ghost for your peace that You’ve given me during this waiting period in my life.” It’s OK to say “Thank You Jesus” sometimes, yet He’d like to hear why you are thanking Him.

And please don’t say that He is Omniscient (All-Knowing). Sure He is, but He’d still like to hear why you’re thankful and you need to hear (as a reminder) how He has, and still continues to bless you again and again and again. When we take the time to tell Him why we’re thankful and what we’re thankful for, He appreciates the gesture even more. It’s great to be thankful, nevertheless, let’s get specific in our gratitude and let it not be just on Thanksgiving Day (You know how Uncle Henry will take 20 minutes to begin to tell the Lord for all that He’s done over the past year. Not good timing with all the “growling tummies”). Let’s take more time to let Jesus know what He’s done for you lately.
