Your morning cup of interactive devotional... are you ready to overflow in daily blessings?

Matthew 16:15-16 — “Thank you” and “Please” work… especially with God!

[15] “What about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say that I am?” [16] Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Matthew 16:15-16 (NIV)

Is He your “I’m-in-trouble -genie-in-a-bottle”? For some people, the only time they ever think to call on God is when life’s dark storm clouds come rolling in, or when they’re in need of a “world-moving-miracle” of some sort. God is just like the rest of us… He too would like to be shown love and appreciation for the little things He does on a daily without us asking.

Think for a moment… about the smallest blessings you’ve been a prime recipient of just today. Yes, what if He hadn’t decided to wake you up in a comfy bed and living arrangement, then what?

My mom always told me saying ‘thank you’ and ‘please’ would take me a long way in life. Just as we each love to hear both when we do things for people, don’t you think God would love to hear thanks from you, and more importantly, what He is and means to you?

Who is God and what does He mean to you?
