Our Heavenly Father, we’re grateful to the Lord Jesus Christ for redeeming us from the life of sin, and permitting us to be called His children. I’m so thankful for the friends that You have given me, for these compliments that’s just been given to me by my brother and this audience. I’m unworthy of these blessings. But this: All glory to the Lord Jesus Christ, Who picked me up from a life of sin and saved me, for by His grace...and give me these friends. You did it, Lord, and I’m thankful for it. And may I always walk worthy, by Thy Spirit, of these, Thy children.

My friends, as you know, Thanksgiving is a day set aside here in the United States for giving thanks to our Lord Jesus for all His blessings. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how thankful I am for YOUR love and friendship. For those who are reading this article, there is a good chance that we have never met in person, but I believe that we were together before the foundation of the world, and I believe that we will be together for Eternity.
I am thankful that the Lord has given me the honor of serving Him side-by-side with each of you. If He asked me which people in history I would like to live my life with, I’d say, “Lord, these are the best people who have ever walked the earth. I want to be with them!” Friends, we may not fit in with the world, but we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that we should shew forth the praises of Him who hath called us out of darkness into His marvelous Light! That’s the people that are on earth today, and I am honored that you would call me your friend.
May our Lord Jesus richly bless each of you this Thanksgiving, and may you be reminded of a very special gift that the Lord has given us: each other.
Your friend,
Brother Joseph
