Thanksgiving Praise

“It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High.” Psalm 92:1

Today I am thankful:

* That Creator God does not change and that He does not let me make decisions that only He is capable of making.

* That God is not willing that anyone would miss out on spending forever with Him; anyone who will not be there has decided to refuse His free Gift of Grace in Savior Jesus.

* That I have the privilege of living in the USA; it is not perfect, but there is no other place I want to live.

* That a lot of people have been patient with me over many years – and still are.

* That I have enjoyed 54 years of marriage to Carol, with whom at one time I thought I could not even get a date!

* That I have been privileged to be in church ministry for 50 years; it is a gift to do every day what really does not feel like work.

* That there is one book, the Bible, that still tells the Story of Jesus; knowing Him brings life eternal.

* That I do not have to find answers to life questions that seem to have no answers; it just shows that God is God and I am not.

* That I enjoy what God has promised if we seek Him – food, clothing and shelter; and that the homeless might experience some of this during the holidays because people care.

* That the church founded by Jesus has endured the test of time and will continue until He comes back for it.

* That freedom from the penalty of sin also brings the power to overcome daily sins so that life can be filled with peace and contentment.

* That one day I will not write a “Thanksgiving Praise” but will express it in person to Savior Jesus.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Plodding Along

July 31, 2019 I was encouraged a few days ago by an article in Our Daily Bread called “Plodding for God.” It referenced William Carey, who is known today as the father of modern missions. I doubt that people saw […]

The Moment We Have

July 25, 2019 I have been pondering the relationship between Philippians 3:13-14 and the admonition of James 4:13-17.  Apostle Paul connects past experience and future anticipation.  James appears to be thinking about the present.  What is the balance in all […]

Inconsistent Humanity

July 17, 2019 Consistent humans are hard to find.  The problem started in the Garden of Eden when the first humans had everything good and chose to believe a lie that they were missing something.  Human consistency was damaged. Our […]

Understanding Job

July 11, 2019 Each time I read the Book of Job, I have mixed reactions. This time I decided to reflect on some of them and what might be helpful insights or applications. It amazes me that the story gives […]

Freedom Has Boundaries

By wvbaptist | July 3, 2019 | 0 Comments

July 3, 2019 To say that freedom has boundaries sounds like a contradiction. Perhaps that helps explain why today’s society engages in so much discussion and debate about the subject. Creator God established the principle of “freedom boundaries” when He […]
