Dear Christian Friends
“It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name. O Most High.” Psalm 92:1
What is it that we are thankful for? Can you name all of the blessings the Lord has given you? I hope you have a lot of paper or enough data availability in your computer. Let’s just look at one blessing that the Lord has given to each and every one of us. The gift of eternal life through the suffering and death on the cross and rising from the dead three days later by Jesus Christ. This is really worth our THANKSGIVING ATTENTION.
This coming weekend is THANKSGIVING weekend. Many people will treat it as just another holiday where families get together.for a fabulous meal along with tales of past memories. That in itself is not all bad. But by doing so are we really forgetting what God has done for you, for us, for everyone?
Join together with your fellow Christian brothers and sisters this coming Sunday to hear God’s word, pray, sing praises and receive the body and blood of our Lord through Holy Communion. Oh yes – and to THANK God for all of his blessings including the sending of his Son to take our sins on his back as He went to the cross. How about inviting your families to join you in church this Sunday.
After that you can go ahead and have your family thanksgiving plans knowing that you have placed your THANKSGIVINGS in the proper perspective.
We Pray
Dear Heavenly Father, we are so grateful for the many blessing you give to us daily. We thank you for sending your Son to suffer and die that we might be forgiven for our many sins and also be assured that through His resurrection, we will have life everlasting in His heavenly kingdom. We ask this In the name of Jesus Christ our ever living Saviour .Amen
