This has been a difficult year for all of us.  Covid, the economy, social unrest, etc…  But even without those things, as long as you are a living, breathing human being you will have problems.  Sin still rules the planet.  We hurt people.  People hurt us.  There is pain and illness.  But God is bigger than all of those things, and He is deserving of our thanks and praise regardless of the circumstances we may find ourselves in.  We are to give thanks for all things.

Scripture reading: 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
