1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

New Living Translation (NLT)
 
 
16 Always be joyful. 17 Never stop praying. 18 Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.



Our joy, prayers, and thankfulness should not fluctuate with our circumstances or feelings. Obeying these commands - be joyful, pray continually, and give thanks - often goes against our natural inclinations. When we make a conscious decision to do what God says, we will begin to see people in a new perspective. When we do God's will, we will find it easier to be joyful and thankful.




Have a great Thanksgiving day!  Remember to be thankful in all circumstances.

Enjoy your family...

Joe
