Barry’s notes…

Give Thanks with a Grateful Heart

Psalm 100:4 invites us to, “Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; be thankful to him and bless his name.”

Although Thanksgiving comes along one day per year, giving thanks is a daily discipline. As a national holiday, Thanksgiving encourages us to count our blessings and give thanks to God for our abundance.
Charles Dickens once wrote, "Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some." As you plan your Thanksgiving schedule, I pray that you and your family will enjoy a fun and memorable time together. I trust that our feasting will truly be a celebration of God’s grace and provision, and that our table conversations will affirm that our blessings are indeed a gift from God. May our lifestyles reflect our commitment to prioritize and utilize our resources for the glory of God and to generously share with those in need.

This year, above all else…turkey, travel, football, and shopping…above all, give thanks with a grateful heart. If you are on the road during the Thanksgiving holiday, travel safely. Then please plan to join us either online or in-person on Sunday for worship.

As we observe the first Sunday of Advent, we will be lighting the Candle of Hope and singing songs that point us toward the birth of the Christ Child. Our theme this year is The Dawning of a New Era. This Sunday we will be exploring Isaiah 64:1-9 as we focus on a message titled, “Come on Down.”

May our feasts and our festivities this week remind us of our blessings and encourage us to devote our days to living wisely, serving faithfully, and sharing generously.

These lyrics by Henry Smith summons us into the spirit of gratitude:

And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us.”
Give thanks…

I pray that you and your family will enjoy God’s richest blessings this Thanksgiving.
