Thanksgiving

 
    As the people came to the Tabernacle or Temple, they sang songs of remembering.  How God had delivered them from Pharaoh, and killed their enemies in the Red Sea.  God had made a way, when there was no way.  He provided a cloud by day and a fire by night.  He gave them water out of the rock.
 He would not let their enemies attack them, slaves didn't know how to fight.  He brought them out with wealth.  Egypt had profited greatly from their work. Now, they would have to give money, garments, jewelry and other articles to the Jews to pay them back for their labor.  Everyone of them left Egypt well.  God had done great things for them and they were to remember Him.  They had songs about God's mighty acts accomplished for them.

  This is a season to be still and reflect on God's goodness to us.  God gave us truly a land flowing with milk and honey.  We have forgotten Him just like the children of Israel did.  We go to ball games instead of the house of the Lord.  Our prayer life is far from what God would have it to be.  Let's go back to remember how wonderful our God is.  He has done great things for us, wherein we are glad.

  What a friend we have in Jesus.  Have we taken time to be thankful?
   Connect with love ones or a friend.  It's always time to be grateful.

   Sometime problems gets so heavy and our way gets cloudy.  We can't see and our focus is distorted like being in a whiteout.  We shake up a Christmas globe with all the snow and the house disappears. When things gets so out of whack go back to God.  Be still and know He is still God.  He can see everything clearly.  He has a higher view than we do.

 Trust in Him with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding.  Proverbs 3-6.
