Thankful: Two Short Posts Long on Thankfulness

I’m thankful to have two thankful posts to share with you today. First up, Glenn.

Hi my name is Glenn and I live in Christchurch, New Zealand – is this important? In light of my story, yes. On Thursday the 22nd of September I got wind of a prophesy, declaring that on the 28th of September an earthquake would strike out in the ocean and send a tsunami through the city killing many.

Now how is this going to translate into thanks giving?

Before I knew about this prophesy I had booked a ticket that would take me out to Geraldine. My return ticket was set for 27th. I was faced here with a choice. Do I just stay in Geraldine and cancel my ticket or trust God with my life.

I am thankful for the 28th September prophesy in that I was tested.

I came to the conclusion that if I am to be taken by my Lord on the 28th. I will die no matter where in the world I am, so I did not change the ticket and returned to Christchurch on the 27th.

The prophecy did not come to pass.
