The Fisherman's Lament

Sailing across the ocean blue  Singing shanties with my merry crew We cast our nets into the briny waters To provide for our wives, sons, and daughters. But when are nets grew heavy and taut We heaved them up to see what we caught. And what did our accursed eyes behold? Fish with scales that glistened like gold.

Thanksgiving

My little sister and I helped Mom with our Thanksgiving dinner today, and the food turned out perfect. I made the video above to show some of the pictures and video I took of some of the cooking and food. 

Since today is Thanksgiving, I think it would be nice to show these Bible verses. 

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, NKJV)

Therefore I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and sing praises to Your name. (Psalm 18:49, NKJV)

We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks! For Your wondrous works declare that Your name is near. (Psalms 75:1, NKJV)

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. (Psalms 118:29, NKJV)

Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name; The upright shall dwell in Your presence. (Psalms 140:13, NKJV)

I am thankful that God has sent Jesus, His Son, to die on the cross and rise again that those who believe in Him will be saved. I am also thankful for the thanksgiving meal we have made today, and for God's wonderful creations such as the trees and the rain. I hope whoever may be reading this has a blessed Thanksgiving today and I pray that God gives you guidance and peace in your lives. Give thanks to God for all He has done, for He is worthy and deserving of thanks and praise.
