Scripture: Isaiah 29:24
Those who got off-track will get back on-track, and complainers and whiners learn gratitude. (the Message)
Thought for the Day: I vaguely remember a parent’s voice saying something very similar to what we find in the second half of this passage. The parent was my mother and I was the one being told that I needed to learn a little gratitude. Some folks have real reasons to complain, but for most of us, we have allowed our little issues to overshadow the good stuff. As we approach Thanksgiving Sunday (and just celebrated a wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner at the church last night) let us allow those silly things that have caused us to whimper and whine to be eclipsed by a true spirit of gratitude.
Prayer: I have plenty for which to be thankful, Lord, but I will start by extending a thank you for your unconditional love. Amen.
