A DEVOTIONAL: BY DECONESS BONNIE, HILLTOP CHAPEL

IN “ALL” THINGS GIVE THANKS

As we approach the Thanksgiving season, we think of all the innumerable things in our lives for which we give thanks. If we tried to list them all, the list could be endless.

Even so, we may exclude some very important times along our life’s journey that should be on that thankful list. We are in I Thessalonians 5:18, “In everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus.”

In all things? Is that even possible?

Well, that brought to mind the beautiful song,

“In the Valley He Restoreth My Soul”. Written by Dottie Rambo. A portion of second verse, “He tells me there’s strength in my sorrow and there’s victory in trials for me”. Think about the words in the chorus: “He leads me beside still waters, somewhere in the valley below; He draws me aside to be tested and tried, but in the valley He restoreth my soul”.

Take a few moments and think about the valleys in your life and give thanks to our Heavenly Father for carrying you through those difficult times. As you celebrate this wonderful Thanksgiving Season, may you and your loved ones be filled to overflowing with gratitude to our Heavenly Father for our eternal salvation.

In Christian Love, Deaconess Bonnie, Hilltop Chapel
