Many Americans will head out on Friday to buy stuff they don't need, or stuff that other people don't need. Some stores are even opening up on Thursday night so these spenders can get started even earlier. This makes me sad.
Have we, as a whole, become so consumeristic that we are shortening our day set aside for Thanksgiving?
And those bargains you might find at Wal Mart? Someone paid for those already. In low wages, or no wages, in terrible work conditions, in long 10-12 hour days, 7 days in a week.
I am not saying we should not buy anything. But please use wisdom. Ask God to guide you as you shop; He cares about everything you do.
Happy Thanksgiving!
