Now that Thanksgiving is over . . .

 Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

Ok, so Thanksgiving is over. All the food has become stale leftovers. The only thing left may be the turkey bones and some cranberry sauce! All the relatives have gone home. Memories have been made . . . some good and some not so good. So, now that Thanksgiving is over, what do we do?

Well, to Paul, it was simple . . . keep thanking God for everything! It would be what Jesus would have us to do!

Thanksgiving is not just a day or a weekend celebration. For the CHRISTian, every day is a day of giving thanks . . . if nothing else than for our eternal security in Christ!

So as we look back, of course thank God for the days off, the relatives and friends, and oh yes, for the food! But more than that, keep thanking God for today and the eternity to come!

We all are held accountable for all we do . . .

Even a child is known by his deeds, whether what he does is pure and right. The hearing ear and the seeing eye, the Lord has made them both....
