Thankfulness – Day 4

Today, I am thankful to be an American. God placed me in our great, but imperfect country, but one that was founded of Christian principles. I hope we will always strive to be a Christian nation.

OCC Shoeboxes

It is the season to pack shoeboxes for children around the world and for giving children (and their families) the opportunity to learn about Jesus and to become Christians. I know of one area churches that will be packing shoeboxes TODAY and under new leadership. I thank God for their efforts to provide many children with gifts and with knowledge about being saved. Say a special prayer for the packers at 2 P.M. Also, say a prayer for the children who will receive the shoeboxes. May they not only appreciate the gifts, but also grow to love Jesus and his message for their salvation. Remember, in 2025, each shoebox will share the message of the Bible with ten people and in their very own language.
