Thanksgiving Blessings

Hello everyone. The snow missed us overnight...for which I'm very glad.

This coming Sunday, I will be ministering at Beacon of Light Community Church in Old Forge, Pennsylvania. Pastor Joe Bachman is always so gracious to open his pulpit to me. Please pray that the Lord will minister at these meetings and that the body of Christ will be strengthened and encouraged.

Thanksgiving is just a few days away and my mind runs through all the many things I have to be thankful for. I am thankful for a loving Savior who has entrusted the gospel ministry to me for over 23 years. I am thankful for food, clothing and shelter. I am thankful for America, a country where freedom is offered to all who settle here. I am thankful for family and friends and the love they give to my sometimes weary soul. I am thankful for a home church who although they don't see me often have supported me for many years. But mostly, I am thankful for forgiveness and the cleansing work of Jesus in my life. All my sins are rolled away. The list just goes on and on...

As you carve the turkey this week, keep a song of thanksgiving in your heart. One more thing I'm thankful for...stuffing! God bless.
