From the Heart: 30 Days of Thanksgiving

Welcome

"THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE; LET US REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT." Psalm 118:24.

"He who believes in Me, as the scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." John 7:38

Isaiah 12: v2 says. "Behold God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; For YAH, the Lord is my strength and my song; He also has become my salvation." v3. "Therefore with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation."

I definitely have drawn "water from the wells of salvation" from the blogs I have read and the encouragement from those who visit here. May God continue to bless each person who stops by and may you "draw water from the wells of salvation also".

30 Days of Thanksgiving - Day 8

Ephesians 5:20: "giving thanks always for all things to

God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ."

As always my thanks to my Heavenly Father is based on the scripture above in Ephesians. I will be listing something that I am thankful for each day in November. Days 1-7 have been moved to Memes just under my header.

Day 8 - Today I am thankful for the Cross. Hebrews 12:2 "looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

Because of the cross upon which Jesus gave His life, we have the promise of forgiveness for our sins, eternal life in Heaven, and healing for our bodies by the stripes He bore upon His back. Jesus bled and died for everyone who will accept Him as their Saviour, live for Him proclaiming the Love of God, the return of Jesus to take us to Heaven, and the indwelling of the sweet Holy Spirit. Thank you, Father, for the cross. I pray the song, The Old Rugged Cross, by The Gaither Vocal Band, will bless and touch your soul.

Ephesians 5:20: "giving thanks always for all things to

God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ."
