   Time to Give Thanks

Hello Friends! We're thankful for you today.
Well, the holiday season has officially arrived! It's time to stir up our hospitality skills, generosity & creativity as we prepare to celebrate with friends & family. It's also a great time to reflect on 2008. There's always something to be thankful for. We are both thankful for the relationships & opportunities God has given, & continues to give. We also freely give thanks to the Lord Himself, for He is good & His mercy endures forever!

     Give Thanks Today & Everyday, by Tammy Redmon

Come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come to him with thanksgiving. Let us sing psalms of praise to him. For the Lord is a great God, a great King above all gods. He holds in his hands the depths of the earth and the mightiest mountains. The sea belongs to him, for he made it. His hands formed the dry land, too. Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the Lord our maker, for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care.  - Psalm 95:1-7  Hear His voice today!

Today is a day (as any other day) where we are called to give our praise and thanksgiving unto the Lord.  With out ceasing, we are to pray for those we love, for the concerns of our hearts and for the changing and transformation of lives.  We are to boldly shout our thanks unto God for all that He has done for us. Not just because the calendar says, "it's that time of year to be thankful," but because we serve an Awesome God that loves us so much that He formed the heavens and the earth just for us.  Amen!

As we go to celebrate the season with our families, friends and (I hope) even those less fortunate, remember that as believers we have a good Word that surpasses all understanding and all reports on the wellbeing of our nation.  We as believers, serve a God that is so much bigger than any other thing we may be facing in our personal lives!  So as you go out to share in the season of thankfulness with those around you, lean on the Word of God for your shout of praise and thanksgiving - He is good all the time, in all seasons and with all people who call Him Savior.

Today, we offer a challenge of sorts to each of you in this season of thankfulness.  Take a moment or two and write down ALL that you are thankful for - grateful for - in life, business, family, and whatever comes to mind.  Then, share it with those you are with this season, whether it's around the turkey (or tofurkee) after the pie has been eaten and the dishes put away, take time to express your gratitude for your life, for His calling upon your life, for what's been done, and for what's to come.  Offer it as your prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord and watch what grows from your seed of praise and thanksgiving as you have gifted it to others.

At Koinonia Business Women, we are grateful for each of you who call this home for encouragement in your business and career as you expand your personal capacity.  We are so thankful for the women that have been so generous with their words of gratitude for this little slice of something so wonderful that God has also formed with His hands through us.

May each of you find strength to persevere, gentleness to feel embraced with warmth, and love to share with those around you.  Many blessings to you and your family this Thanksgiving!

Krista & Tammy

ONLINE TIP:
Do you own a web domain name? How about YOUR name as a web domain name?

You may want to consider securing (by purchasing) your own name (if possible) as a website domain. For example, Susie Que would try to get susieque.com.

Here's what you need to do:  visit your favorite web domain selling site (such as godaddy.com, hostmonster.com, yahoo.com, etc.) and type in yourname.com to see if it's available. If so, buy it!!  You may end up wanting it in the future, and if you wait, chances are it will be taken.  FYI!

Tip - Paying more than $10 per year is not a good deal.
