THANKSGIVING SUNDAY

O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and
thirsty land Where there is no water..
Psalm 63:1

When in the desert all by yourself how do you commune with God?
Do you sleep on more and take more rest, and continue with a nod?
King David teaches much today with this early morning act
He sought the Lord so early on before other things distract
His soul was thirsty for his God and his body felt it too,
So he called upon the Lord right there His refreshment to pursue.
Oh what consolation for us when we early seek the Lord,
Knowing very well we'll get it and great will be our reward. (RP)

Thanksgiving is Thursday but today in church we celebrate it by giving a message appropriate to the day.  I am honored to be asked to preach this morning at our church. Margie so far is adjusting well to the new medication to control her heart rhythm. We are pleased and rejoice she has had no more upsets. Thanks for helping us in prayer. It means very much to us.
