146:2.15 Jesus warned his followers against thinking that their prayers would be rendered more efficacious by ornate repetitions, eloquent phraseology, fasting, penance, or sacrifices. But he did exhort his believers to employ prayer as a means of leading up through thanksgiving to true worship. Jesus deplored that so little of the spirit of thanksgiving was to be found in the prayers and worship of his followers. He quoted from the Scriptures on this occasion, saying: “It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to the name of the Most High, to acknowledge his loving-kindness every morning and his faithfulness every night, for God has made me glad through his work. In everything I will give thanks according to the will of God.”
Thanksgiving
Another day where 60’s rule.
Tomorrow’s weather will be cool.
Heading towards Thanksgiving Day.
It is just a week away.
It’s been spectacular, this Fall season.
Temps have been much more than decent.
Not too many storms are here.
They didn’t touch us much this year.
As we march towards Holiday cheer,
We contact all those we hold dear.
We plan to see them very soon.
Relationships on hold, resume.
Families come from far away.
They come together for Holidays.
We resume where we left off.
We find our families are not lost.
Every day we should give thanks.
As we live, we may have angst.
But we’re alive, and we enjoy
All the things that life employs.
So yes, I give my thanks to God.
I look to Him, to help me solve
All the problems of our days.
Love’s construction paves our way.
Thank You, Lord, please help me be
A focus of reality.
And help us all to understand
The wisdom of Your loving plan.

Hello friends in Christ
Let's join our hands so as we can help our fellow brothers and sisters who are just here in Uganda suffering due to the death and mistreatment of their parents. Most of them don't go to school because of lack of school fees and scholastic materials. Honestly let us help for the blessings from our God.
