Pricey Pal,
“All good items round us are despatched from heav’n above;
Then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord for all His love.”
These phrases are the chorus of my favourite harvest Thanksgiving hymn. It reminds us that whereas the farmer sows the seeds, we’ve got God to thank, as a result of it’s He who “sends the snow in winter, the heat to swell the grain, the breezes and the sunshine, and gentle, refreshing rain.”
The Pilgrim fathers might not have sung this hymn, however they have been completely satisfied of the reality it comprises. Our nationwide Thanksgiving vacation is constructed upon the agency perception that God the Father carried out His artistic works by way of the exercise of God the Son: “All issues have been made by way of him, and with out him was not any factor made that was made” (John 1:3).
There’s little query as as to if we as residents of the US are each beneficiant and grateful. Historical past, proper as much as the current, supplies overwhelming proof of those nationwide traits. Nevertheless, not everyone seems to be satisfied that the one we’re to thank is our heavenly Father. Giant sections of the up to date technology have been hoodwinked into believing lies—that there isn’t any absolute morality, no final fact, and no private creator God. In order that they don’t have any framework for residing and nobody to thank however themselves. It isn’t tough to see the correlation between the absence of fact and the instability, turbulence, and confusion that’s on show.
Our endeavor is to talk fact right into a tradition that’s just like the tossing sea, which can not relaxation. We do that by distributing God’s Phrase proclaimed on Fact For Life by way of each mainstream channel out there to us—fashionable podcast apps, streaming TV, YouTube, radio, Instagram, Fb, and, because of your assist, most not too long ago WhatsApp, amongst others.

On behalf of all of us right here at Fact For Life, we want you a blessed Thanksgiving.
With my love within the Lord Jesus,
Alistair
