“And we urge you brothers, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient and kind to everyone.                     1 Thessalonians 5:14

 

Rev. Banks message titled Giving Thanks with scripture text taken from 1 Thessalonians 5, told of a time when he went on a cattle drive with his father and he said he has a memory that won’t be forgotten. This was when his son Ryan was only a couple of weeks old.  It turned out to be a real blessing, for the grandmother and mom got to spend a week together.  Can we remember the vivid detail of those moments when God is at work in our lives.  This Thanksgiving let us remember the common blessings, the special blessings and our Holy blessings. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with friends and family and remember all of God’s blessings on your life.
