Giving Thanks Is Our Action Of Faith

John 6:20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.

Jesus walked through the situation where there seems no way,

To your boat of heart, assuring you,

He came through for you because He cares about you.

Where the darkness is,

The moon in the sky and campfire by your side,

Still shine on you,

“Even while you sleep among the campfires,

The wings of my dove are sheathed with silver, its feathers with shining gold” (Psalm 68:13).

I see Jesus is holding your hand,

You are like a little child learning to walk,

Slowly but joyfully,

Holding Jesus’ hand,

Keeping your eyes forward,

With Jesus by your side,

You know He is leading you on the path of His righteousness.

You are set free to walk,

Not stumble on the blocks of sins,

Nor hindered by the holes of devil,

For Jesus’ Holy Spirit in you is teaching you to remove the blocks through confession,

And avoiding the holes through watchful prayer,

You are not alone.

Jesus is for you, what can men do to you?

Even if you encounter the storm,

Jesus holds you in the center of the storm as your prince of peace,

He is pleased with your faith,

And you are glad to be who you are in Jesus, who made you fearfully and wonderfully.

We choose to sacrifice thanks offering to Him,

Through our faith to please Him alone,

Not by flesh, but in the Spirit,

Giving thanks is our action of faith.
