THIS WEEK'S SCRIPTURE
PASTOR'S BLOG
Greetings Cascade Family and Friends,

"O Give Thanks, Unto the Lord, For He is Good, and His Mercy Endures Forever."  As we enter into the Thanksgiving week-end, Karen and I wish you and your family a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving."  This year has certainly presented us with some real challenges--some of which we are still experiencing.  However, in the midst of the challenges, we can still say that God has been faithful and He has been with us through every test and trial.  All of us know that a life without some challenges doesn't exist.  BUT, I am just glad to also know that we don't go through anything in life, without God's Presence, Power, and ultimate Promise of Peace.  Yes, Romans 5:3-4 is clear:  "...we glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;   and perseverance, character; and character, hope." I hope you are living in this manner with the assurance that God's goodness and mercy are your reasons to Give Thanks.

In addition, I am grateful for the love and support that you express toward Karen and me. 

You are our family, and we are thankful that you feel the same way about us.  God continues to smile upon all of us and He deserves and expects our attitude of gratitude.  I would also like for all of us to be intentional about sharing our love and appreciation for members of our family and community.  There is never a more important time for us to assure each other of how special we are, and how much we mean to each other.  Don't put it off; do what you need to do and say what you must now.  

Friends, THANKFULNESS is a choice that we make.   "Gratitude can transform common days into Thanksgiving, turn routine jobs into Joy, and change ordinary opportunities into Blessings" (William Arthur Ward).  Come what may, I hope you will always choose to rejoice, give thanks, and share the love of God with everyone you know.

In Gratitude,

Pastor Lawrence L. Young
