As we approach the Thanksgiving holidays, I think about what Paul wrote to the church in 1st Thessalonians 5:16 - 18, he said "Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." We should rejoice always, because our trust and hope is in Jesus. He has never fail us or forsaken us. He is the friend that will always be there no matter what! Pray without ceasing. Are we praying as Paul said 'without ceasing"? We truly have alot to pray for today. Our Country and our Leaders. Our Troops that are here and abroad and our families. We really have alot to pray for these days. But Paul said in that verse 18, that in everything we are to give THANKS! As I look back since last Thanksgiving, I truly have so much to be thankful for both good and bad. Paul was telling us through the words of God that we are to give thanks in all things. As we set down this Thanksgiving lets give thanks for all that our Heavenly Father has brought us through both good and bad this past year and to remember "Rejoice evermore"!
God bless,
