Thankful for Hope and Freedom

I am so thankful for the hope that comes when thinking about God’s goodness as well about the great times we can have together thanking God! I have often felt uncomfortable with these words in the song, “let Thy congregation escape tribulation.” I know that Jesus promised that we would have trouble in this old world, but in His mercy He can “make us free.” There is hope in this thought!! Then, pilgrims escaped to a new world to worship God. . . . Here's a great version of the song, "We Gather Together," with fun Thanksgiving time pictures!
