Every morning my journal begins with the words, "thank you" or "thank you, Lord", so, for me every day is thanksgiving. Today, in the United States, Thanksgiving, is no different, other than the way we celebrate it. We are besieged with all the sales, family get-togethers, travel, materialism run amuck, and, of course, for many a paid day off from work.
This year, Thanksgiving is almost back to what it was before Covid, but there are many restrictions and requirements imposed by each and every business, government entity and our own "rules" for staying safe and healthy. Life has become more complicated and we wonder what is still to come. Yet we have the answer and it was written long ago in a Book called the Bible.
As Americans and Christians it is our calling to tell the world how thankful we are for the blessings God has lavished on us. I'm not saying we have a perfect country or a corner on the spiritual "market". Far from it. But, on this day, and every day , be thankful for what God created, why Jesus went to The cross for, and what is promised in The Book. Thank You, Lord………for this day……..and every day…….
