GIVE THANKS
Colorful displays of pumpkins always make me think of bountiful fall harvest and the faithfulness of God. Here we are, just a day after celebrating Thanksgiving. Many of us were blessed to be surrounded by family and a table laden with a feast of delicious food. The words of the doxology that we sing each Sunday morning comes to mind: "Praise God from whom all blessings flow, praise Him all creatures here below; praise Him above, ye heavenly host; praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost - amen."
God made a promise in Genesis 8:22: "While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease." He also tells us, "If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land," Isaiah 1:19.
We have so much to be thankful for and so, I give thanks to my precious heavenly Father, my beloved Savior Jesus Christ, and my dear Indwelling Spirit -- all praise and glory to You who have abundantly blessed us beyond counting!
"Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever," Psalm 136:1
Thankful to have another day - save this as a Thanksgiving prayer for next year. Or just about anytime.
