This Thanksgiving is Particularly Important.

America has been especially blessed by the Lord throughout its history – from a miraculous founding to overcoming the threats of two world wars to protecting our precious grant of freedom.  God has used America to provide a beacon of hope to a world mired in paganism, oppression and poverty.

But these past several years have been downright painful as that beacon of light grew pretty dim.  It often felt like evil, perversion and chaos were about to swamp the boat as the “progressive agenda” was shoved down our throats at every turn.

Many Americans shared a sense that the country was at a critical crossroad during this last election.  Millions of Americans feared what would become of us should Ms. Harris win the presidency and extend the progressive revision of our nation.  It seemed unlikely that the American Vision would survive a Harris Presidency.  Yet, in our hearts, we knew that she was the kind of leader we deserved.  For much of this long Biden reign, it seemed the only rational thing was to reach out to the Lord and plead for His intervening mercy.

Just weeks ago, the Lord answered those prayers.  He has granted us a reprieve, a chance to repent and recover those values which have always made America unique among the nations. 

We have a hard struggle ahead; so much damage has been done to this nation by Biden & Co.  But today we can take a long breath to soberly consider what God has done for us.  Hope has been restored.  The chance to overcome utter insanity has been given us.

As we gather today to mark God’s bounty, it is imperative that our thanksgiving carry a somber recognition of our great escape from certain calamity.

Thank you, Lord, that we still live in biblical times.
