With
everyone hurrying around during the holidays with planning the perfect meal,
cleaning house, watching parades or sports, and various family or social
gatherings - does the real Thanksgiving
get lost in the rush? Too many homes have replaced the giving of thanks
in prayer to God with a round table of “I am thankful for…” with each taking a
turn. The history of Thanksgiving holiday
started as a way to stop, remember where our blessings come from, praise God
for them, help others, and also share time with family, friends, and
neighbors. The social aspect was last
and God was first. Do you stop and let
God know you are thankful and that you are awed by the blessings he has given
you? Do you say a personal thanksgiving
prayer, select
a thoughtful prayer, or read aloud a selection of relevant scriptures as
part of your Thanksgiving celebration?
Please
read the scriptures below and think about how they may apply to your own blessings,
so you may appropriately give thanks to
God, and praise God for all He has
done for you and yours.
