Take time to prepare for Thanksgiving which is coming soon. Give thanks to God for all the blessings you have received. By “Counting our blessings” we can overcome some of our lust and greed. When we think of Thanksgiving the view of pilgrims and native Americans sitting together for a meal giving thanks for God's provision and protection comes to mind.

Return The Son breaks through clouds so dark Returning to the earth He does love Coming for those who failed Him Yet dwell and bask in His love The darkness flees before His coming The light flashes across the sky From East to the end of the West Eyes are drawn unto the sky Fear breaks across many faces As doom shines forth in bright light Others Rejoice to see hope dawning As Jesus walks in heavenly light Shackles are broken, prisoners freed Doors thrown open, grace set free Shackles appear on those in darkness Loving sin, refusing to be free Behind Him comes a glorious host Barely seen behind His face Like a mighty army they follow Him But I just want to see His face Death flees before Your light Conquered forever to live no more Life’s victory is now complete Death will not live any more So wondrous that all is made new Heaven and earth created again The Garden is open for business Man walks with God once again!
