The Thankfulness Train Day 29.  Since I was just informed by my most famous “younger” brother that the train runs through the end of the month of November, I will continue for two more days.  I am thankful today that I had no desire to join the Black Friday crowds….haha  But mostly I am grateful to God for a lovely time to share with friends and family on a special day of THANKS.  We had a lovely time with family, new friends and new extended family.  Great food, great fellowship and time with those we love and will grow to love.  May God be seen in us each and every day, and in every way.  May we reflect the character of the God who saves and keeps us by His power, His Spirit and His grace.  Praise God from whom all blessings flow.

Just Food for Thought

Just food for thought this morning.  As many are out shopping—including my granddaughter—and many more are home breathing a sigh of relief that Thanksgiving is over, I can’t help but think of the thing that we’ve talked about all month on the “Thankfulness Train”, that Gratitude is an Attitude we should cultivate and practice all year long.  It’s a mindset that not only thinks of others but is thankful for others, especially our God.  May we recommit to be a more grateful person each day so that when Thanksgiving comes around next year, we’ll be perceived as one of the “Grateful” people.  That we’ll be “Humbly grateful” rather than “Grumbly Hateful”.  Remember it’s a choice.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend….

The Thankfulness Train Day 28.  I wish each of you a most glorious and happy Thanksgiving.  Thank you for sharing this month of gratitude and riding this “Thankfulness Train” with me.  May we each remember this day to give “thanks” to God, and to think of and pray for those far away from home, for those who are grieving and suffering hardship this day and be sensitive to all that we can do to minister to others with the love of Jesus.  I am MOST thankful for Jesus and HIS saving blood and that He promised never to leave me or forsake me.  Walk in grace and kindness today and don’t let the pressure or stress ruin your day.  Smile, walk on and thank God for His undying love and grace.  Happy Thanksgiving to you all….

Bible Ballistics: “BBs”  #19

Psalm 100

 “ Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.

2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

3 Know ye that the Lord he is God:

it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves;

we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving,

and into his courts with praise:

be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

5 For the Lord is good;

his mercy is everlasting;

and his truth endureth

to all generations..” 

What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving!!!

Who: Us—all ye lands—Praise God who created all things.

What: Make a joyful noise,

Serve the Lord

Sing before Him

Acknowledge God as Creator & Lord

Thank, praise and bless GOD.

When: Always!!!

Where: In HIS presence.

Why: Because GOD is GOOD ALL THE TIME!!!

So?  Here’s our shot for the day????  Praise & thank GOD today.

So?  ??????  Keep looking up!!!  Jesus is coming soon.

The Thankfulness Train Day 26. I am thankful for the opportunity to travel and see loved ones. Thankful for the means, the opportunity and the health to go. I am so thankful that God has a plan for us and it includes so many things that we never imagined that we could do. Go see or call someone you love today and let them know that they are loved. In person or over the phone–not a text or a post!!!
