Sunday Words of Encouragment Novmeber 22, 2009

As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving this week I hope everyone remembers to pause and say Thank You to the Creator who made us who we are and gave us all the bessings that surround us.

A Thanksgiving Verse:
1 Chronicles 16:34 NRSV
O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever.

I pray that you may each look around you and see blessings this week!
