Today’s Thought “Sage and Cinnamon” G. Ward
James 4
13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” 14 Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.
Views of automobiles lined up to receive food and pandemic monotony in the same have become commonplace and thoughts of my Dad’s forced introspection to his four children sought taking our mindsets from selfish to selfless by insisting we know of a place in the world called Timbuktu where there was food scarcity. Moreover and having grown up in the north, he would talk about the stray dogs and cats (for children this would tug at your heartstrings, particularly if you had a pet) who were left to the elements of fall and winter (emblematic of freezing temperatures). For our younger crowd, homeless hadn’t entered our common language then, as people cared for their own (Imagine that?).
While many of us are with a varied food choice on this week, enjoining ourselves to thoughts of tomorrow’s delicacies, be careful with your thanksgiving concerning all you have without intentional care unto those with less (Jas. 2:14-17).
