LET US GIVE THANKS
In the midst of confusions frus

for us to pause and give thanks to
the Almighty God, our Creator, our
Father in whom” we live and have
our being. ’
The strife and cares of present
day living would tend to becloud

day by a loving Father. Too often,
we allow ourselves to be so mes

to see the goodness of God. Wr for

mercy, grace and love by which
we live, We forget many of the
blessings God is ready to bestow
upon us because, in our haste and
selfish cravings for more wealth
we forget to expire gratitude for
the things we already have.
