”Twas the night before Thanksgiving, no turkey did I see, they were scared as a mouse, Oh where would they flee, but just as we, whose sin, we could not flee, Jesus came from the heavens you see, he took our bondage from sin from our lives, to help us to live for all eternity. Well maybe, just maybe, he’ll do the same for these birds, but if not, then we’ll be Thankful, for the sacrifice of the birds”. Seriously, we have much to give thanks, May you forget all the bad, and enjoy giving THANKS. GOD BLESS YOU ALL. HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING. LOVE YOU ALL, AND THANKS FOR LISTENING. 🙂

Remembering the privilege I had, of participating in the baptism of a friend of mine. He, has since, been able to share his own story with many people, boldly. Love you Sam.

Oh God, you are my hope, in the good times and the bad. It is you, I put my hope and trust. Not in my circumstances, whether good or bad. You are everlasting, and my soul waits for you. AMEN!!!

Friendship vs Brothers and/or Sisters ( See Note Below)

bible.com/bible/100/pro.17.17.NASB1995

Note of explanation: The difference between a friend and brother is noted here. A true friend is a constant source of love, while a brother in one’s family may not be close, but is drawn near to help in trouble. Friends are closer than brothers because they are available all the time, not just in the crisis. Cf. 18:24.

For with God, ALL things are POSSIBLE………

Verse Thoughts from John Piper

True righteousness and godly love are two sides of the same coin, but neither are possible by human effort, strict training, mortifying of the flesh, or self-denial. True righteousness and unconditional, godly love is the supernatural enabling of a child of God by the Spirit of God, through faith.

To love our enemies and to do good to those that hate us, is impossible in our own strength. Blessing those that curse us and praying for those that mistreat us… without retaliation, is such a distinctive love that it is rare and beautiful and only exhibited in the lives of those that die to their own desires and live for the glory of God.

Every believer is positionally righteous because we were placed ‘in Christ’ at salvation. We are united to Him and identified with Him by faith. But living a life of practical righteousness and transmitting the unconditional love of God to others, which demands that we bless those that curse us and pray for those who despitefully use us and persecute us, is a human impossibility.

Lord, May we be spending our day, thinking eternally, as we go about our Fathers business. Our Hope is not in the things we do, but in the things that you are able to do, and accomplish through us as we hopefully point people to Jesus.
