A Plate of Grace . . .
by Deborah Ann Belka Come this Thanksgiving . . . there will be no turkey with dressing there will only be a plate of gratitude served with God's many blessings. As a substitute for candied yams, we are going to feast on His kindness and taste the sweetness of His favor as we reflect on His loving guidance. There will be no rolls and butter, instead, we'll eat of the Bread of Life and with gratitude we'll give our thanks that we no longer live in hopeless strife. In the place of creamy mashed potatoes, there will be praise piled just as high and we will sing to Him our adoration instead of eating pumpkin pie. The only beverage we will drink, will be from the one True Vine and with sanctification on our lips Jesus' sacrifice will be as sweet as wine. Come this Thanksgiving . . . I'm not making a traditional dinner I'll only be serving the grace of God . . . to those I know ~ who are still a sinner! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2 Corinthians 12:9 King James Version "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
