Thanksgiving Week Checkup
How is your week going so far? Have you started to thank God for His many blessings, or are you finding yourself stressed with last-minute preparations, getting ready for family to arrive or preparing to take a trip? The enemy would like nothing better than to overshadow our days with busyness and bad attitudes, but what better way to keep that from happening than to turn your stress to praise? My challenge for you (and me) this week is to focus on doing just that. When you find yourself beginning to yell at those around you, or when you are on the verge of tears … stop. Take a break. You may feel like you can’t afford to do that, but you can’t afford not to. Thank God that you have family or friends to get together with. Thank Him for the food He’s provided. Tell Him how much you love Him. Once you are refueled a bit, you can get back to your overwhelming tasks. Hopefully with a lighter heart.
Happy Thanksgiving week, my friends! Don’t let satan rob you of your gratitude.
