As we pause and reflect overall for which, we as a nation have to give thanks.

We are indeed thankful, but it has an even more significant impact. As Paul says, “This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God” 2 Corinthians 9:12.
