WE SERVE A MIGHTY GOD and should praise him on a daily basis.
Each year at Thanksgiving, we remember all of our blessings.
Thanksgiving comes at a time of the year when most farmers have completed the harvest of their crops.
We had a late cotton crop this year & were able to get it harvested before Thanksgiving.
In Psalm 106 vs 1, scripture says “Praise the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good, and His mercy endureth forever.”
We have so much to be thankful for. We can be thankful that God blessed our nation with independence from England. We are a Christian nation & our founding fathers used scripture & references to God in our Constitution. We can be thankful for salvation. Jesus died that we all might have eternal life. All of us who have accepted Christ as Savior will be at the great reunion.
We can be thankful for our veterans who served so that we will remain the greatest nation on the earth.
Remember to pack a shoe box for Operation Christmas Child. I attended the Values Voters Summit in Washington D.C. in October. I visited with Edward Graham, son of Reverend Franklin Graham, and is a former Army Major who is serving with leadership at Samaritan’s Purse. Samaritan’s Purse is opening a distribution center at Coppell TX & will also handle Operation Christmas Child. I also visited with Randy Riddle, who is in charge of Operation Christmas Child. State Representative Cody Harris recently did a fundraising auction for local and state candidates. We have an auctioneer in our state legislature.
