Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I love it when my young kids say "thank you" when I give them something, whether it's a special gift or just a glass of juice at lunch time. And I imagine God loves it, too, when His children thank Him. So tell Him "thank you" today, and be specific!

When we thank God for something, we acknowledge that He is the Giver, Supplier and Source. That's why being thankful is an act of worship*! We should be thankful every day of the year, of course, but it's nice to have a day that specifically celebrates our thankfulness.

Enjoy the holiday, and I hope to see you Sunday!

*The Bible connects worship and thankfulness a lot! Take a look at these scriptures about worship: Psalm 100; Ephesians 5:19-20; Colossians 3:16; 2 Chronicles 7:3; Romans 1:21; Hebrews 12:28; Revelation 4:9-11.
