WISHING YOU MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A JOYOUS SEASON!

KNOW YOUR TIRE NUMBERS!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY FANS IN THE USA!

There are many things to be thankful for during this THANKSGIVING SEASON. 

If there is nothing that you can think of, just thank God for the gift of life. 

There are many who would have loved to be alive today but they are not!

 There are many who wish they could laugh, talk, walk, smile, hear, dance, eat, and even pee, but they cannot! 

There are many who wish they had three square meals a day but they cannot! 

There are many who wish they have a place they can call home, but they cannot!

JUST BE GRATEFUL FOR WHATEVER YOU HAVE!

HAVE FUN!

Enjoy this hymn by Johnson Oatman

1. When upon life’s billows you are tempest-tossed,
   When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
   Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
   And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.
   • Refrain:
     Count your blessings, name them one by one,
     Count your blessings, see what God has done!
     Count your blessings, name them one by one,
     *Count your many blessings, see what God has done.
     [*And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.]
2. Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
   Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
   Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,
   And you will keep singing as the days go by.
3. When you look at others with their lands and gold,
   Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;
   Count your many blessings—*money cannot buy [*wealth can never buy]
   Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.
4. So, amid the conflict whether great or small,
   Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
   Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
   Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.
