Ephesians 1:15-16

“For this reason,

ever since I heard about your faith in

the Lord Jesus

and your love for all God’s people,

I have not stopped giving thanks for you,

remembering you in my prayers.”

Between the season’s…

Candy-giving…

And Gift-giving holidays is…

Thanks-giving!!

So I’m taking a moment to…

Give Thanks To God!!!

For…

My Italian grandparents who came to America…

My parents who raised me to be a Christian…

My two brothers and their families…

And my sister…

Who all serve the Lord…

My family of aunts, uncles, and cousins who taught me to trust God always…

To know Jesus…

To spread the Gospel…

To believe that God takes care of what concerns us…

My husband…

Our health…

Our son, who we adore…

Watching as he continues to serve the Lord…

And the dog that we spoil…

 Our family, our friends, our home, our cars, our finances…

Our neighbors, our churches, our schools, our communities, our country…

Giving me a love of learning, teaching, and sharing God’s Word…

Giving me a love of kids, teens, and young adults…

To encourage them to use all the gifts and talents God gives them…

To glorify His Name!

Placing young people in my life…

Who also want to praise Him with all their gifts and talents…

 Teaching me how to pray and walk in faith… 

To know that God’s Holy Spirit is with me…

And in me…

Guiding me…

And giving me wisdom…

Amen!!

So, why don’t you…

Stop…

With me…

This Thanksgiving season…

To express thankfulness  to God…

For His Presence in our lives…

Let’s Praise Him…

And Worship Him…

Because…

He makes every day joyful for us…

Who believe and trust in Him! 

1 Chronicles 16:34

“Give thanks to the Lord,

For He is good;

His love endures forever.”
