I will say this is the day that the Lord has made! I will enter His courts with Praise!


 


I am thankful for the good food that we eat, I am thankful for the beautiful colors that show up on our trees around Thanksgiving, and I am thankful for you – my Crenshaw Kid family! But who should I thank for all of these wonderful things? I should thank God because God is the one who gives us our food. I should thank God because God is the one who makes the trees change with the seasons, and I should thank God for you because God is the one who gave you to me.

In Psalm 138 David thanks God with his whole heart and David thanks God for everything. Let’s read it: 

 


I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing your praise; I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word. On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased. All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord, for they have heard the words of your mouth, and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord, for great is the glory of the Lord. For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly, but the haughty he knows from afar. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me. The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands,” (Psalm 138, ESV).

We should thank God for everything and we should thank God with our whole heart!

Last week...Fishers of Men! This coming week...Jesus Heals and Forgives!

                                          Jesus wants you and me to fish for people, too. That means that Jesus wants us to tell others about what He has done for us and what He wants to do for them. Fishing for people is a lot like fishing for fish. First, we need to be properly equipped . We need to know what the Bible teaches and learn how to share it with others. Next, we go out where the people are and tell them about Jesus. Finally, we must be patient .  If we do these things, we can really become fishers of people like Jesus wants us to be. If you think there is a great feeling of excitement in catching a fish, just imagine how exciting it must be to bring someone to Jesus! I look forward to seeing you on Sunday! We will be meeting in the sanctuary! We sing in worship this week so we will rehearse and also hear about the friends who took their friend to Jesus. They took their friend through the ROOF! You hear me correctly! Can't wait to tell you all about it!
