Good Morning and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
I had originally intended to take today off, but I am so thankful for you all,
         that I needed to tell you that on THIS MORNING!  

Yes...  I have scanned my church directory looking at first names!  I love each of you!  You are each special in your own way.  WE LOVE GOD TOGETHER!  That is awesome!  It is ETERNAL!  That gives us a UNIQUE FOREVER TIE THAT BINDS!  
Lord willing, I will eat well today.  Thank you Lord.  But YOU & ME... US...  THAT’S SPECIAL!  It is a gift from God.  
Eph 2:10    For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.
Thank you Oh God for my SPECIAL PEOPLE who help me sojourn this life.  Thank you for their prayers and their thoughts toward me and my Cathy.  Thank you for their gracious FORGIVING OF ME.  Thank you Oh Lord for their PATIENCE all these years.  They overlook my weaknesses Lord, and treat me with kindnesses I do not deserve.  WE are FAMILY because You, Oh Lord, have adopted us all.  Together, we seek a RISEN LORD... WE SHARE AN ETERNAL VICTORY!  It’s just a matter of TIME, and You, Oh God,  let us share that in LOVE!

Col 2:2-3    that their hearts may be encouraged, having been knit together in love, and attaining to all the wealth that comes from the full assurance of understanding, resulting in a true knowledge of God’s mystery, that is, Christ Himself, 3  in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

I LOVE YOU WITH MY WHOLE HEART MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS.
LET’S LIVE THIS LIFE TOGETHER  IN THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST!  
I pray that we can make the Church what God intended for it to be!
O the things we may do...  you and I...

2Thes 1:11-12    To this end also we pray for you always, that our God will count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire for goodness and the work of faith with power, 12  so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Your Brother Phil
