We first must decide who it is that we will choose to follow. My hope and my prayer is that you are choosing Christ tonight, in Thanksgiving for the great miracle called life, in which we- - - you and I were given. We did not ask to be born, and yet our mother chose life, and thank God that she did. And we were raised in love, and that love brought us into the light and company of our creator. And if you recognized that love as being somewhat of a miracle you are spot on! I look at love in that very light. It is full of awe and wonder and we are wrapped up in it, before we even know it, more like enraptured, and captured in the net of love that is Christ Jesus. Yes! Christ loved us first! It is there our story begins. And we fill in the years by our choices to love as he loved us by breathing life into all of creation. He created us unique and we are His! We fill our life with love and Christ is in the center of who we are and what we bring to the table. What are you choosing to bring to Christ this Thanksgiving Day? At mass as I placed myself in the precious chalice, where the wine is changed into Christs blood, I find myself thankful for Christ saving my life as a Christian woman of faith. His love healed my every wound, and made my life complete. I want that gift to come into the heart of every man and woman still searching, because it is the Christ that you are looking for, and when you do find him, we realize that Christ too was waiting very patiently to welcome us all into his holy realm of love and peace. Jesus comes to us in many forms. Sometimes through a kind act caught in a moment that created a crossroad in ones life in desiring change. The cross winds blow and we do not know where they come from but we do know everything comes from God. So God has a special gift above and beyond the gift of life if you can believe it, one can never ever out do God, because he keeps on giving. And he gives himself to us in many different forms, mainly through good healthy friendships that have already discovered this pearl of great price. Inside the bed of the sea, he creates life that creates a pearl inside of a shell, thats alot of creation being thrown at us at one time, but God is revealed beautifully to us even at the very bottom of the seabed, he can create beauty out of sand and turn it into a pearl through the salty current churning water forming exquisite pearl essence before our very eyes. You are Christs most treasured pearl. Priceless in his eyes. And today I bring Christ to the forefront of this Thanksgivng podcast, to reveal his hidden importance to us as Christians desiring the truth. The truth is we were made in his image and likeness. We were made holy, unblemished, and beautiful in his sight. We were meant for heaven. The earth is a place where all of us die, and yet we are given the gift of knowledge of knowing him before that happens. Happy are those who desire finding him and discovering the joy of knowing about eternal life before it begins. Happy are we who are prepared in the Lord! Happy are we to take this gift of life and make everything of it for his greater glory. To know God is to love God. To see God is to see God living in everyone He brings personally into our lives. Our work has only just begun! We need to roll up our sleeves. Our souls salvation is on the line. Along with every single soul Christ wants us to feed, the truth, so that our heaven can be with God for all eternity. Eternity is timeless! And we need this time to get our lives in order the sooner the better. Our obedience in Christ is everything. It defines us. It challenges us to be Christ like, and Christian in every way. Do not delay this call.
