DENNIS
Good morning everyone. I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist Church. I believe we live in the best country in the world. In spite of our problems, the majority of our citizens have access to education, health care, and employment. The majority of Americans have a roof over their heads and food on the table. We have a lot to be thankful for.
If you are in this majority of folks, have you ever stopped to wonder how all of this is possible? Well, we can certainly attribute a lot to the many dedicated Americans serving in industry, government, and our military. However, this is not the main reason. The reason you and I have been given so much is because of God. God is the giver and sustainer of life. Therefore, it is fitting that we give back to God.
In the bible, we are told of a woman who gave Jesus a present that was worth a lot of money. It wasn’t because she was told to do this, but because she was devoted to him.
During the next few days, I encourage you to give back to God. It could be a monetary donation to your church or it could simply be your time in prayer. Give thanks; give back; give to God. Have a blessed day.
