Can’t Help It
And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Colossians 3:17
This has been quite the year.
A stint in the hospital, the first time I’ve ever been that sick. Shortly thereafter, the
birth of my son, Grayson, and the joy of watching him grow and change so much
in just a short span of time. Through everything, that message of Colossians 3
remains etched in my mind.
Experiences like those will impact personal perspective. Lying in a hospital bed
while doctors and nurses poke and prod for days with no answers creates
frustration the likes of which I’d never experienced. I expected to go in, get a
diagnosis, get treated, and go home. To this day, I still don’t know what in the
world happened or what was wrong, and I won’t. But I’m thankful.
I’m thankful that my health is returning. I’m thankful to those same doctors and
nurses. I’m thankful for the family and friends who continued to pray, call and
write with encouraging words, and continue to support me. I’m thankful for a
loving wife who stuck by me every single day in the midst of being in her last
trimester of pregnancy. When counting all these things, I’m most thankful to a
loving God who provided these things in my life.
I can’t help it.
In the summer, when my son entered into this world and I heard his cry for the
first time, I was thankful. When finally alone in that hospital room together, tears
flowing from the overwhelming joy at this new life that had become part of our
family, I was thankful. For every day, every chance to hold Grayson, play with him,
give him a bath, carry him to his crib at night when he’s asleep, I am and will
forever be thankful.
How could I be anything but thankful?
When reflecting on the opportunities God has given me to
experience joy in my life, I’m thankful.
I can’t help it.

Scripture reminds us, in all things, in all circumstances, to be
thankful. As the Spirit of Christ dwells within us, reminding us
every day is a fresh opportunity to experience God’s handiwork in life, when confronted with the
blessings of God, the natural response is gratitude. In this season of thankfulness, as we recount the
many ways God has provided continued blessings in life, whatever we do, we do in thankfulness to
God, because when we’re truly aware of what God has done, how could we be anything but thankful?
It’s the natural response.
And we can’t help it.
Happy Thanksgiving.
