Shepherd to Sheep

Ephesians 5:20

"always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;"

As we approach this week the holiday we celebrate as Thanksgiving, it's good for us to remember that those early settlers to the new world came not only to enjoy the bounty of the land, but the new found liberty and freedom to worship the Lord. We have come to a point where we today relish all the food, fun and football that we can handle. For many, gone is the thought that in all things, we ought to give thanks to Jesus. We have gone through a lot, pandemics, layoffs, shut in, new normal versus a yearning for the old way things were done, vax no vax, division among families, mandates, government over reach all compound the more normal stressors of life. It's good for us to remember that in all things, we shouldn't forget His love endures forever, in all things we should give thanks.
