"The Season of Thanksgiving"

Every day, we have the opportunity to thank God for blessing our lives. Thanksgiving is when we can reflect on our lives and recognize all the good things we have. We can give thanks for our family and friends, the health we enjoy, and the opportunities we have been given. We can give thanks for the beauty of nature and the peace and joy that comes living in communion with God.

Giving thanks to God is not just something we do on Thanksgiving Day. We can thank God every day, in both big and small ways. We can express our gratitude through prayer or by taking time to appreciate the world around us. We can also show our thanks by helping others and spreading kindness. Whatever way you choose, giving thanks is a meaningful way to recognize the blessings in our lives and show our appreciation for them. Being genuinely thankful requires us to look beyond our current circumstances - whether blessings or struggles - and look to God, our true source of blessings. It's easy to thank God when we can physically see and touch his blessings - food, money, clothes, good health, family...but what happens when feeling thankful is hard? How can we truly live a thankful life?

It may not be Thanksgiving Day, but we can learn from Thanksgiving Day all year long. The pilgrims suffered great hardship and loss, yet they chose to celebrate and thank God, believing they were blessed. There will always be circumstances, events, and news for which we are not thankful.

But, we can always express our gratitude to God through prayer and experience the power that comes from letting go of negativity and opening our eyes to the blessings surrounding us. Thank You, Lord!

Thank you, Lord, for all the blessings in my life. Thank you for the sun that rises each morning and the stars that shine each night. Thank you for the joy of friendship and the comfort of family. Thank you for the beauty of nature and the mysteries of the universe. Thank you for your guidance and protection. Most of all, thank you for never leaving my side, even when I don't know you are there. Have mercy and save me O God. Amen. (christianity.com)
