Thanksgiving Blessings

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will,to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace which He lavished on us.” (Ephesians 1:3-8a)

May this Scripture passage resound in your heart and mind as you celebrate Thanksgiving tomorrow. Take some time to count the riches of His grace extended to you in Christ Jesus. Praise God for His providential grace – providing all you need for life and godliness. Praise Him for HIs sustaining grace – giving you life and breath each new day. Praise Him for His intercessory grace through the ministry of the Lord Jesus before God’s throne of grace. Praise Him for the sanctifying grace of the Holy Spirit – convicting of sin, correcting you and comforting you to the image of Christ. All these blessings in Christ flow out of the riches of God’s grace. They are immeasurable, incomprehensible and unimaginable to our finite minds. 

“Be glad in the Lord, you righteous ones, And give thanks to His holy name.” Psalm 97:12

Debbie and I send prayers for a Happy Thanksgiving for you and your family.
