In the daily bustle of life did you ever think things just weren't right, like you didn't get a fair shake; that sometimes God just didn't think the whole process of creation through. Many go through this, sad but true reality too often in life. This is why scripture gives us direction of how too 'Stir Up Thanksgiving' in our hearts. The Holy Spirit is often compared to a flame or a fire. Paul told Timothy to 'stir up' or 'rekindle' the gift of God.

This literally requires some personal effort. And a sure way to ‘stir up’ the Spirit is to take the poker of your memory and remember what God has already done and the times God has intervened in your life and answered your prayers. Meditate upon each time and blessing. Throw the logs of praise, thankfulness and gratitude on the fire of God and just see if the flame of the Holy Spirit does not burn more brightly than ever before. Join us this Sunday @ 10am as we help and encourage through God's Word the 'stirring up' of Thanksgiving. (Childcare and Children's Ministry Available)
