I have a challenge for those who are convinced there is no God. Be grateful. Is the request that horrible. Just each time you have a meal, for three months, thank God for it. Tell Him you appreciate the food. I must admit, it will take courage. If, as you say, there is no God, no harm. On the other hand, if there is a God, and, because you start thanking Him, He just might make his presence known to you.

Then, what do you do? You will have to make a decision. Will you admit the presence of God or will you continue to deny Him in spite of knowing of Him.

As I say, it takes courage. You just might not like the results. Then again, in the long run, you just might really like it.

I don’t know. I have no idea what the results will be. I have not asked God in advance and He has not said anything to me that I know of. It’s totally my idea, an experiment.

Regardless, isn’t it a good idea to be thankful to others, even if you refuse to thank God.

Personally, when I learned to thank God, I also learned to be thankful to others. It didn’t really take all that much courage. I just thought it would.
