This upcoming Thursday, November 28, we will celebrate Thanksgiving! Let us pause to remember the abundant blessings God has poured into our lives.
Thanksgiving is more than a feast; it is a moment to pause, reflect, and give thanks for the gift of family. Psalm 100:4 encourages us to “Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to Him; bless his name!”
Thanksgiving is a time to step into God’s presence with gratitude, cherishing the loved ones He has placed in our lives.
Spending Thanksgiving with family offers an opportunity to strengthen bonds and create lasting memories. Around the table, we share stories, laughter, and sometimes tears. These moments echo the wisdom of Ecclesiastes 3:1, which reminds us, “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” Thanksgiving is a season for togetherness—a time to embrace love, forgiveness, and unity in our families.
In the spirit of gratitude, let us remember that Thanksgiving also calls us to serve and bless others. As we count our blessings, we are reminded of
1 Thessalonians 5:18, “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Let Thanksgiving inspire us to show kindness, share our abundance, and extend the joy of gratitude beyond our homes, reflecting the love of Christ in our actions.
May your Thanksgiving be filled with love, peace, and the presence of God.
Sincerely,
Pastor Dexter Royes
