Thanksgiving, A way of life!
I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. Psalm 9:2
Happy Thanksgiving! Today as you give thanks for all that God has done, understand that you are a part of God’s plan. I’d like to invite you this holiday to redirect and refocus toward the word gratitude. Today as we begin to make a choice to praise the Lord and to remember all the benefits of our inheritance, we will connect with God in our spirits and be able to bring Him the kind of worship, in spirit and in truth, that He seeks from us (John 4:24).
Thanksgiving opens our hearts to experience more of God. Praise shifts our focus from ourselves to Him, filling us with joy and faith. This Thanksgiving, let gratitude overflow as you reflect on God’s attributes and blessings. Consider creative ways to express thankfulness, like writing down reasons to be grateful or giving to those in need. Thanksgiving is more than a day; it’s a lifestyle of worship.
Let us also remember our brothers and sisters who are going through rough seasons in life and may not have the strength to say with confidence God is good, because they cannot yet see this season as being good. Say a prayer for those who are struggling and ask God to cover them with His peace today.
Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!
Prayer for today: Father, I rejoice in Your goodness and love. Thank You for the blessings in my life. May my gratitude honor You and inspire others to give thanks. Amen.
