Ready: 

1 Timothy 4:4  For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,

 

 

Set: 

Hockey Chat: Not every thing always goes as planned.  An off the mark pass.  Missed shot.  Whatever it may be, getting ticked off and giving up isn’t going to make it any better.  Take it that the play is still good and don’t give up on it.  Whatever didn’t happen then will turn into another opportunity and that’s something to be thankful for even if it wasn’t the original play. 

Go: 

Life Lesson:  We are blessed in so many ways in all of our days.  Whatever life holds for us we should give thanks to God.  In times of blessing we give thanks for what we have.  In times of trial we give thanks for the chance to build our faith.  Remember to give thanks for all we’ve been given.  Even if the opportunity was not what we originally intended, God's grace is giving us much to be thankful for.
