As a Christian in the Community, Does My Thankfulness Show?
Intro: 1. Gratitude is necessarily the fundamental _________ of all
we give and do as Christians.
2. Just as assuredly as ingratitude will be found among
_________________ people, so also will gratitude (thankfulness)
be found among those who know God.
TEXT: Colossians 3:12-17
I. The "Crowning Touch" of the Christian's ____________ Is
Thankfulness.
1. __________ times in three verses gratitude is stressed.
2. There is nothing more _______________ than "ingratitude".
3. And unfortunately, the more ____________ we are, the more
apt we are to be ungrateful.
4. Basically, thankfulness arises out of ________________.
5. Blessings may very well prompt _________ _____________ of ap-
preciation when we first receive them.
– But, as time passes, that appreciation too often _________ or
________ as we come to take the blessing for granted as
