Thanksgiving Inspiration from Glen VanderKloot

Thought for the Day

The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts. No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving.

Scripture Verse
Psalm 100:4 TNIV:

Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.

Prayer:

For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of bird, and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee! Amen

~Ralph Waldo Emerson
