Thanksgiving
It’s the time of year when people, especially Christians, talk about being thankful. We think of the blessings of food, family, and a roof over our heads, as well as the freedom to worship our God. Our Pastors are preaching on the subject and we hear about it in the evening news. Even grocery ads remind us that it is the season to give thanks, although I think they have an ulterior motive.
The Psalmist tells us to “come before Him with thanksgiving.” We are instructed by Paul to “give thanks in all circumstances” and he told the church at Colossae to put on all sorts of godly attributes and then ends by saying “and be thankful!” I get the feeling the Lord is serious about this!
May you be blessed with a thankful heart this Thanksgiving.
