Jody McCoy’s sermon on “An Attitude of Gratitude” examined the concept of being too comfortable to do God’s Will. Jody took issue with the things that keep us too comfortable and gave the remedies. Some notable quotes are: “comfort becomes our value system”, “the more we have, the less we appreciate what we have”, “the way we learn to value things is often by losing them”.
Jody used 1 Chron. 16:34 as his scripture.

Jody,
Thank you for your sermon, which reminded us of all the “goodies” we have in this day and age, and the warning that we may become more comfortable than we should. It is when we lose something that we realize that we have become too attached to it. As you noted, Jody, you were preaching to yourself, as well as giving the warning to others. Real COMFORT comes, not from things, but from God and our relationship with Him, as we give ourselves to others.
As always, we thoroughly enjoyed your visit home, Jody. May God bless you always. We love you . . . .
