Daily Thoughts - Thankful
"As he continued his journey to Jerusalem" Luke 17:11a
"In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:18
Happy Thanksgiving. I sit this morning in awe of God as He paints a picture. He tells us to give thanks in ALL circumstances not just the good ones, not just the ones we find comfort in but ALL. His Son Jesus operating within the perfect will of His Father gave thanks with His life. As He walked towards Jerusalem and the coming Eucharist feast, He was filled with thankfulness.
Look at all the celebrations we have, we make memories around the banquet table with family and friends. God makes memories around the banquet table as well. Take time today and thank God for all that has happened in your life. Give Him praise for the blessings and His perfect will. The walk to Jerusalem isn't an easy path but the feast that awaits is what keeps us moving in that direction. Happy Thanksgiving, be blessed knowing God has you in the palm of His hand no matter the circumstances.
Dear Father God, Happy Thanksgiving. Thank You for the Eucharistic feast that we celebrate in our Catholic faith. Your Son walked that path so we could join You at the banquet table. Heal hearts that are not feeling thankful today because of a circumstance. Help them see beyond this day to the table of plenty that makes everything we endure worth it, to be home with You. Prayers of thanksgiving for friends being medically healed. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Head of the Holy Family, Pray for us.
