I am thankful for...God!

There is much to be thankful for during this Thanksgiving weekend!

God exists. He is Creator. He has written his words down and placed them in a book called the Bible so that we can better know who he is. God has wonderfully revealed himself to us in the person of Jesus Christ who was fully man and fully God. Through his life, his death on the cross, and the fact that he was raised from the dead and currently lives again he made a way for us to know and experience God. Through Christ, God has extended to us an invitation to be adopted into his family. This offer is extended to all who receive him and believe in his name. As we choose to become a follower of God we are given the Holy Spirit who enables us to live for him in all things. And we are given the promise that with Christ is not just the best way to die, but he is the best way to live - far better than wealth, fame, pleasure, power, security, and comfort. And we are told that one day he's coming back. His current delay is so that you can hear this word, trust in him, and be saved and then turn and encourage others to do the same.

Now that's Good News!
