Events of Thanksgiving

The days of driving the School Bus this week will only be two. We drive Monday and Tuesday, and then, we are out until the 27th of November. It is a nice long Thanksgiving break.

On Wednesday I have to go to the hospital for an MRA to check me over to see if they can find what is causing the high blood pressure problem. I am supposed to be there at 7:45 a.m. Sometime Wednesday afternoon, or so, Philip, his wife Sarah, and our grand daughter Rene'e will be coming up from Booneville, AR. and staying with us until Saturday. It will be a great joy to have them with us.

Wednesday evening, of course, we get to go to church for Prayer Meeting and Bible Study at Carr Lane Baptist Church. That will begin at 6:30 pm. I do not know how many will be there, but I know there will be prayers of thanks offered to the Lord for His many blessings.

On Thursday we will all be going to my parents home for our Thanksgiving dinner (around the Ozark hills dinner is what most city people call "lunch"), but it is usually later than most eat 'lunch'. Just about all the Blankenship family of Mike and Juanita will be there.

There will most likely be another couple there. Dave and Edna Eaton. They are my sister Judy's in-laws. They are a blessing to have around, and to be around. Dave just recently retired from the pastorate in Las Vegas, NV. All of us have always considered them a part of our family. And they are.

EVERY BODY HAVE A WONDERFUL AND BLESSED THANKSGIVING

Know Jesus

The Bible says, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23). The glory of God was the reason for our creation. When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden of Eden it passed on to their children, and that is you and me. We also read in the pages of the Bible [God’s Word] that, “There is none righteous, no, not one”. (Romans 3:10). Righteousness is simply being right with God. Because we are sinners, yet God - who is holy loved us - sent His Son Jesus to die for our sins. The Just One [Jesus Christ] for the unjust [You and I]. “But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8). Here is the gospel of Jesus Christ; “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures; and that He was seen of Cephas [Peter], then of the twelve: After that, He was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep [are with Christ]. After that, He was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all He was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.” (1 Corinthians 15:3-8) “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9-10). “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). BE SAVED TODAY.
