BE THANKFUL

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls."

Matthew 11:28, 29

King James Version

C. Louise Bell wrote the beautiful and inspiring hymn "Jesus Understands".  I love the words in this hymn.  "Every heavy burden, He will gladly share, Are you sad and weary? Jesus has a care; Well He knows the pathway o’er life’s burning sands, Courage, fainting pilgrim, Jesus understands."  

As we gather together with family and friends on Thanksgiving Day, let us not forget to thank God for giving His beloved Son to die on the cross for our sins and thank Jesus for loving us so much He died for us.  I am so thankful to know that Jesus loves me unconditionally and that He never leaves us, not even for one minute.
