Have
you had your JOY JUICE today? Even if
you ate a big Thanksgiving meal yesterday, there’s always room for JOY JUICE!
Most of us
probably did eat too much yesterday….turkey and dressing and all the trimmings. But we must remember that there are many
hungry people in our world. If we are ones
who are blessed with plenty of food, then we should not take that for granted. Be
thankful and take advantage of any opportunity to share your blessings with those
who don’t have enough.
When Abraham Lincoln was President of the United States of America
in 1863, he declared the last Thursday of November Thanksgiving Day. Every
president since Lincoln
has also declared Thanksgiving a national holiday. But should we wait for the fourth Thursday in
November every year to express our thanks?
It should be a constant condition of the heart. And from our thankful
heart should flow a need to help and serve others.
1 Peter 4:10 (NIV) says:
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”
May we focus
on our blessings; be thankful for what we have received and look for doors of
opportunity to open for us to serve others in various ways. This is the way to genuine joy in the
Lord. Spread His love with a grateful,
joyful heart.
Let’s
make every day a joyful, “Thanks-giving” day!
