I Am Thankful

I Am Thankful

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his faithful love endures forever.”

1 Chronicles 16:34

Can you believe that Thanksgiving is here already? Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions in your family? Do you eat the same foods every year? Do you watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade? Do you go around the table and share what you are thankful for? Whatever you may do on Thanksgiving day, I hope you remember to give thanks to the Lord. We have so much to be thankful for at CrossRidge Church. I am going to share with you a few of the things that I am thankful for.

I am thankful for our leadership. I am thankful for our pastors that preach and teach God’s truth every opportunity that they are given. I am thankful for our elders and deacons that work alongside of them as they all lead and love CrossRidge Church so well.

I am thankful for our Preschool, Children’s and Youth Ministries and those that lead them. Lives are constantly being changed and God’s Kingdom is growing because of these ministries here at our church. I am also thankful for those that serve in these ministries and pour into our children each week. 

I am thankful for our Worship Team. I am thankful that they are willing to give of their time and talents each week as they lead us in worship.

I am thankful for our Dollar Days and the opportunities that we have to love on our community. I am thankful that we are able to love like Jesus right here in Little Elm each month.

I am thankful for the people here at CrossRidge Church. I love how we pray with each other, laugh with each other and cry with each other too. I am thankful for our Life Teams and the ability we have to do life together. I am thankful for you!

Give thanks in everything; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 5:18
