Take It for Granted!
This morning, I was thinking about how we use the phrase "take it for granted." We use it to convey thoughts of negligent ingratitude, or just being used to blessings. However, the phrase in itself is actually completely correct. We should take things for granted -- they have been granted to us by God. If we can see that they are granted by God, we will have gratitude.
So, if you have any blessings in your life, know that they're from God, and TAKE THEM FOR GRANTED!
"Jesus answered, 'You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above...'"
-- John 19:11a
"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning."
-- James 1:17
