WHAT IS ONE THING

THAT YOU HAVE BEEN

THANKED FOR?
 LUCAS 17
Pinagaling ang Sampung Ketongin
11 Sa paglalakbay ni Jesus papuntang
Jerusalem, nagdaan siya sa hangganan ng
Samaria at Galilea. 12 Habang papasok na
siya sa isang nayon, sinalubong siya ng
sampung ketongin. Tumigil ang mga ito sa
may kalayuan 13 at sumigaw, “Jesus!
Panginoon! Mahabag po kayo sa amin!”
 14 Pagkakita sa kanila ay sinabi ni Jesus,
“Lumakad na kayo at magpatingin sa mga
pari.”
Habang sila'y naglalakad, silang lahat ay
gumaling at luminis. 15 Nang mapuna ng isa
na siya'y magaling na, nagbalik siyang
sumisigaw ng pagpupuri sa Diyos. 16
Nagpatirapa siya sa paanan ni Jesus at
nagpasalamat. Ang taong ito'y isang
Samaritano
16 He fell to the ground at Jesus' feet,
thanking him for what he had done.
This man was a Samaritan.
17 “Hindi ba't sampu ang pinagaling?”
tanong ni Jesus. “Nasaan ang siyam?
18 Wala bang nagbalik upang magpuri
sa Diyos kundi ang dayuhang ito?” 19
Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanya, “Tumayo ka
na at umuwi. Pinagaling ka ng iyong
pananampalataya.
17 “Hindi ba't sampu ang pinagaling?”
tanong ni Jesus. “Nasaan ang siyam?
18 Wala bang nagbalik upang magpuri
sa Diyos kundi ang dayuhang ito?
 KAILAN NAGIGING
MAHIRAP ANG
PAGPAPASALAMAT?
 YOU MAY NOT TAUGHT HOW TO BE
GRATEFUL
 You didnt use to do it
Roma 1:21
21 Kahit na kilala nila ang Diyos,
siya'y hindi nila pinarangalan bilang
Diyos, ni pinasalamatan man. Sa
halip, naghaka-haka sila ng mga bagay
na walang kabuluhan kaya't nagdilim
ang hangal nilang pag-iisip.
ENVY AND MATERIALISM
ARE THE THIEVES OF
THANKFULNESS
Thankfulness is so much more than having enough food to
eat, a nice, warm home to live in, good health, or financial
security, because each of those circumstances can be taken
from us in an instant.
Thankfulness is a state of being and a way of life, and we
usually fail to live in a state of thankfulness because we take
it for granted.
HOW TO BUILD THE GRATITUDE

MUSCLE?
1. THERE MUST BE A LIFE
SATISFACTION
 - Satisfaction is the act of fulfilling a need, desire, or
appetite, or the feeling gained from such fulfillment.
Satisfaction means you've had enough — in a good way

- fulfillment of a need or want. b. : the quality or

state of being satisfied : contentment, a source or
means of enjoyment : gratification.
“I know what it is to be in need, and I know
what it is to have plenty. I have learned the
secret of being content in any and every
situation, whether well fed or hungry,
whether living in plenty or in want. I can do
all this through Him who gives me strength.”
—Philippians 4:12-13
• Filipos 4:12-13
12 Alam ko kung paano maghikahos; alam ko rin kung
paano managana; natutunan ko na ang sikreto kung
paano masiyahan sa anumang kalagayan sa buhay, ang
mabusog o ang magutom, ang managana o ang
maghirap. 13 Ang lahat ng ito'y magagawa ko dahil sa
lakas na kaloob sa akin ni Cristo.
 When you lean on Christ to empower you no matter
what your circumstances may be
- “And whatever you do, in word or in deed, do
everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving
thanks to God the Father through Him”
(Colossians 3:17, HCSB).
May you be encouraged today, friend. It’s
possible to live a life of contentment. A life not
worrying, comparing or having anxiety about the
things surrounding us. Instead there is
contentment and JOY found in Christ. Joy
that is so overwhelmingly powerful that we won’t
care what the world and others around us think.
We won’t worry day to day. We will only care
about our audience of One. The One who is
worthy of it all and gives us a hope to cling to.
 2. ENCOURAGE GENEROSITY
TOWARD OTHERS
 WHEN WE SEE OURSELVES
BEING GENEROUS TO OTHERS
 WHEN OUR ARMS ARE ALWAYS
OPEN TO SEE THE NEEDS OF
OTHERS
You have so much to be thankful for.

God calls each of us to a life of thankfulness. A thankful person

is a humble person. A proud person will never be a thankful
person.
When you walk in thankfulness, you confess that God is the
source of all you have.
You can be thankful for friends, family, health, and prosperity.
You can still be grateful even if you are going through a
difficult time.
In everything give thanks; for this is God’s
will for you in Christ Jesus.
1 Thessalonians 5:18
CONCLUSION:
Start to BUILD UP

A Thankful Attitude
Thankfulness is an attitude. It is confessing that
all you have and all you are comes from the Lord.

Giving thanks is a confession that God is good,

and He takes care of His children.
God Bless Everyone…
