Give thanks to the Lord

November 21, 2007

As we here in the United States approach tomorrow, we celebrate Thanksgiving. A day set forth by our forefathers to celebrate and give thanks. We are to give thanks, not for the large amounts of food that we have, not for the football games we can watch from dawn to dusk and then some, not for the traffic we endure to meet our families, and not even for our families themselves. We are to thank God for God. Our forefathers told us when they created this holiday to thank God for allowing us to be alive. The Bible tells us so as well:

Psalms 107:1 KJV
(1) O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.


As you pass around the turkey, remember to thank God, because his love endures forever.
