Thanksgiving a compound and proper noun (origin English 1533) means giving thanks, a prayer of gratitude and a public acknowledgment of divine goodness.
The beauty of the Thanksgiving holiday is often glossed over as we gather with friends to feast with an eye on Black Friday and the Christmas holiday. For me, the Thanksgiving holiday is a date to pause, recognize, reflect and give thanks for all of the blessings of life. A time to enjoy the harvest and benefits of our hard work. It is a time to come together with family and friends in peace and with gratitude.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!!
May God Bless!
It brings up some facts, quite profound.
We may think that we're poor,
Feel like bums, insecure,
But in truth, our riches astound.
We have guidance from heaven above.
We have so much more
Than they sell in a store,
We're wealthy, when push comes to shove.
Make Thanksgiving last more than a day.
Enjoy what you've got;
Realize it's a lot,
And you'll make all your cares go away.
