  • For What Art Thou Thankful?

    I have SO much for which to be thankful.

    Our Church is just doing great, and I love to 'brag' that everybody gets along. (That's not the case in too many Churches)

    I'm thankful that I live in a neighborhood (for now) and am getting ready to build our retirement home.

    But, at the risk of waxing political - I am truly grateful that there has been a major shakeup in our political landscape in the US.
    Politics, by no means, is the solution to our nation's ills.

    BUT, I go back to that Psalm (33:12) that says "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance".

    (remember - no debates - but please post your thanfulnesses )
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

    You and James! He and his wife had been on a trip up North, and had been gone for several months. They were back in town last week, so they were in Church for the first time in AGES, it seemed. We actually had about 3 or 4 families who had joined while they were gone, so they got to meet NEW FAMILY, and I got to give an update on Jim, who was pretty much a dead man (not even walking) when we met him, and here he comes walking into Church looking healthy and strong!

    So, yes, I thank God for Jim - alive and well after liver transplants!!!!

      Thank God for salvation! And for the nuclear fusion that powers photosynthesis!
      If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

          And I'm thankful you're around.

              Too much to count.
              Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

                Fine tuning of the laws of physics! The promise of a new creation(which I can hardly wait for!).

                  I'm thankful that I don't have to speak in archaic modern English.
                  Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

                  I recommend you do not try too hard and ...research as little as possible. Such weighty things give me a headache. - Shunyadragon, Baha'i apologist
