HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
CANDICE SIMMONS, WICHITA, KS
It’s hard to think of anything else in November other than Thanksgiving and being thankful! Unfortunately, giving thanks doesn’t always come easy when times get hard and our faith gets tested. And those of us living in wealthier nations often forget the blessings that are all around us each and every day. It only took me one day living among our precious Kuna people in the jungle to shake me back to reality. Unfortunately, we don’t always realize when we’re being ungrateful. Sometimes, my husband will remind me when it manifests through my speech. Lord, help us to live each day in the realization of all the bountiful blessings that You’ve bestowed on us!
I once heard Joyce Meyers say, “We usually have our minds wrapped around what we want, what we need, and what we don’t have, when what we’re really needing is more humility, thankfulness, and a lot less pride. Sometimes, we’re just fishing on the wrong side of the boat.” When we take up the things that really matter to the heart of the Father, we find that we’re much happier campers.
Thanksgiving is a highly esteemed commodity in God’s Kingdom. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 says, “And in the midst of everything be always giving thanks, for this is God’s perfect plan for you in Christ Jesus.” And, thankfulness is the very thing that opens the way to God’s presence. “You can pass through His open gates with the password of praise. Come right into His presence with thanksgiving...” (Psalm 100:4).
I know that I’ve posted the following quotes before, but I believe that we need a fresh dose of remembering how blessed we really are. So, read, enjoy and have a Happy Thanksgiving as you celebrate with family, friends or alone! As you count your blessings this Thanksgiving, may you discover that they’re more than you ever realized! And remember, when we count ours, we count you all twice!
“...We will offer up to God a steady stream of praise sacrifices...” (Hebrews 13:15)
