Story Story……(Yep, Its story Time)
Once upon a time, there were two brothers named Tobi and Kolade. came from a very rich family in Nigeria.There
Uncle was even richer, holding a political position. Every year Tobi and Kolade would write to him, Telling him what they wanted as Christmas gifts.

This was how Tobi asked
“Uncle, This Year can I have an Ipad?.. everyone in school
has one. Pls uncle I really want to get one.I need it badly”
Kolade said:
“Uncle, thanks for all the gifts from the previous years…Thanks
for the toy cars, the ipod shuffle, mp3’s,and
last years Ipod(everyone liked it).. This year Ipads are in. Almost everyone has
one.Pls can I get one too. Thank-You”
The following week. The package from Uncle came .As usual
they were both excited. When Tobi felt his, being much heavier, he was happy
that he had gotten his request. On opening it, he realized that it wasn’t an
ipad, but a very lovely pair of Nike boots.
Simultaneously Kolade screamed with excitement, “He got an Ipad”…
Attached to it was a message..

so appreciative of the former ones.I Couldn’t refuse you this one.”
End of Story.
I cant over stretch the importance of thanksgiving, this
article however has a twist.
Introducing…….The “Thanks-Book”. It’s a book, not necessarily it can be a page
on your notepad, or a draft message on your phone, Just for recording the things God has done for you.
God just saved
you from an accident on your way to walk, write it!
You
mysteriously escaped punishment from the authorities write it!
Kk, that’s even big.. simple things such as
You woke up today,
Had the strength to stand up, You have friends that call you during the
day, Write it, write, write it and write
it all.
Make it a point of duty to be thankful for something per
day. Its necessary to write down the things that God does for you.It ll make
you more grateful. Phillipians 4;6
Don’t forget-Thanks giving is application for more and its essential in prayer.

Very profound... thanksgiving is a gateway to get more... the more we thank and praise God, the more He is stirred to blesss us more
