‘Giving Thanks’
Reverend Justin Danielson Parkview Christian Church I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. My family and I traveled to Lake Quivira, KS, to spend time with my sister. I enjoyed the time and fellowship with my family. I also enjoyed the great food. Each time we return home from this trip, I give thanks to God. Thanksgiving isn't designed by God to be only one time each year on the last Thursday of the month. As Christians we are to daily live a life of 'Giving Thanks' and count our blessings. Why? Because God is good, all the time...and all the time, God is good!
