Good and bad

I need to remember this verse often. This is my verse for the month of November! 
Job said, should we just except the good  and not the bad. 
We are told to give thanks in all things no matter what happens, God is in control! God is in control in all things. Some times it's hard to be thankful but we are told to!

Giving Thanks

It is easy to forget the holiday between Halloween and Christmas. It seems we added a new holiday called Black Friday. The stores are just giving into what we want, greed. Black Friday gives us what we as humans are a greedy, a day to trample over each other for our greed. Christmas had become more about us then about Jesus! That holiday we have forgotten is Thanksgiving. It seems we don't want to give thanks.
It is easy to focus on the bad and not be thankful for what we have. I am so guilty of that. Even though I am very sick the Bible tells us to give thanks in all things. 
It gets hard and it's getting harder. I am 36 and I have a feeding tube, have type 1 diabetes, have terrible neuropathy, can't control my bhouls (if I spelled that right) and due to being unbalanced I have to use a Cain or walker. 
But my faith in Jesus has tought me to rely more on Him and to focus on the good. Sometimes that is hard to due but I have to keep on keeping on. No matter what we go through we have a God who cares.
So this month let's not forget to be thankful no matter what we are going through!
