We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Thankfulness to God is a recognition that God in His goodness and faithfulness has provided for us and cared for us, both physically and spiritually. It is a recognition that we are totally dependent upon Him; that all that we are and have comes from God.

NOTES :  In the good old days, when everyone baked, the bake sale offered
cooks a chance to strut their stuff. The competition was friendly but
cutthroat, and winners were determined by whose sweets sold first-and at
what premium price. In celebration of those leisurely times, here is a
classic lemon meringue pie.=20
