Hello Jemidon,
I echo what Pastor Roger said. I was just thinking that time flies. It's hard to think of you as a grown man serving our country. After all, it seems just like yesterday that you were a young adult looking at the future, but that wasn't yesterday. Jemidon, please let me THANK you for serving all of us.
As for us, things are looking good right now for all of the kids getting to come home for Thanksgiving. My son-in-law's sister also just had a baby girl, so we have a new member of the family to welcome. We usually have a pretty large gathering with 4 generations on a farm near Blair, Oklahoma. We have a great time in the LORD, and I'm looking forward to it. I can't remember how many times recently that I've reflected on how much we have to give thanks for. The only conclusion is that every day should be Thanksgiving, and we should never take for granted any of the good things that GOD gives us. We should be giving THANKS, even if we have less than the bare necessities. GOD gives us all, and we should always show the proper Reverence and Appreciation to GOD every single day of this short life. MOST OF ALL:
Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable GIFT, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour Forever!
Love In Christ,
Tom
