In a year where things are unclear, tensions are heartbreaking, and uncertainty is rampant, what can we be thankful for?
11/26/20
We are given, so we give thanks, and we give thanks by giving.

God’s love does not have an off switch. You cannot earn it or deserve it. And your thankfulness for it will not determine if you get it or not.

Good works do not make a Christian, do not secure the grace of God and blot out our sins, they do not merit heaven.
