Thanksgiving Thoughts

Our faith can overcome anger

It’s Thanksgiving again,
and my thoughts are divided.
Like our family,
and the culture of this nation.

A day to remember,
what God has provided.
While waiting,
to see the blessings to come.

A day to reflect,
on the things we’ve lost.
It could have been worse;
we are thankful it was not.

It’s time to remember,
the arguments at the table.
And to let it go;
do not hold it forever.

Think of our epic dreams,
and the past we shared.
The good we can do,
and the future we can see.

Being thankful fuels our faith.
It sees what we can be.
It believes it will be so.
In a future day to come.

The Spirit battles against the flesh This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye…

Trusting God

He is faithful God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.—1 Cor. 1:9 How is trust built?
