A Great Thanksgiving Post...

by Pastor Jeff, includes historical background, a few personal thoughts on the habit of thankfulness, and a few Thanksgiving prayers. All in a relatively short post, adapted from several tracts. That Jeff sure packs a wallop!
Thanksgiving is recognizing with gratitude who God is and what He has done. It's looking to God as the source of everything in our lives. It is believing He rewards those who diligently seek Him. Even when "bad things" seem to be happening to us, God is still there -- and He loves us. When we understand that, we will give thanks to God from a heart full of gratitude. That’s worth doing anytime.
