Happy Thanksgiving.

Colossians 3:17
17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.


The key phrase is "whatever you do...do it all in the name of the Lord." That means everything! Everything we do, no matter what we say, who we are, or what we do, it needs to be offered as a gift of thanksgiving to God. Simultaneously, we should acknowledge Jesus Christ's power too.

In other words, our entire life is devoted to God! That's a good thing, too, because he deserves our greatest offerings. It's all an act of worship and thanksgiving to God. We don't just go to Sunday church service to worship. As living, talking human beings, it is all about worship, give thanks, and glorifying our Lord and Savior.

Prayer of Thanksgiving: May all of our life be devoted to you, God. It's the least we can do given your freedom in Jesus. It's not always easy in this world to give my life to you, but I ask that through my words and deeds, your will be done. Please, Holy Spirit, guide me. Thank You, Lord. Amen.

Happy Thanksgiving and be safe!
