Summary
Well, certainly it doesn't mean that we are to give and deny our feelings as we are giving thanks. On the mount of all of us just before the cross, Jesus was an anguish so certainly, certainly giving thanks in all circumstances does not mean that we are to deny the pain in our life, certainly not. And certainly it doesn't mean that we are to give thanks for everything, right? And there in Ephesians 5 verse 20, Paul, again writing unto the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, writes this, giving thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. In fact, verses three to 14, it is a Baraka prayer that tells us that Paul was keenly aware, keenly aware, that this letter is going to be read at the corporate gathering, the corporate gathering of the worship of God's people. Right before he says verse 20, giving thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
