                                      Well during today’s broadcast, Pastor Allan taught us from the bible where & when to give thanks. We learned that we should give thanks before the unsaved people. We also learned that we should give thanks before other believers. And finally, we learned that we should give thanks in every situation. You see, the giving of thanks is a testimony to the goodness of God in our lives, & by doing this we may have a positive impact on the life of another. We pray that this Thanksgiving, you would take some time to share your thanks, for what God has done in your life, to someone else. And remember, as children of the Lord, we should all be thankful for the free gift of salvation & we should be able to express this gratitude while we have the opportunity. 
                                      
                                      Now, if you have never received this free gift of salvation, & you would like to, then just ask Jesus to come into your heart & save you. This way you can fully know 100% of your relationship to Christ. The only way to share Christ with others is to accept Him first as your own Lord & Savior.

                                      So, if you are unsure of how to pray, you can repeat my words…Heavenly Father, I am a sinner. Please forgive me for my rebellion against you. I believe that Jesus Christ shed His blood & died for my sin. Please come into my heart & save me. Thank You for making me a new creature. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

                                      If you have just said this prayer, then God forgave your sins & will take you to Heaven when you die. Romans 10:9 says, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”, and if you believe this in your heart, then you too will have eternal life.
