Thanksgiving Life!
"It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
and to sing praises to Your name, O
Most High; to declare Your
loving
kindness in the morning, and Your
faithfulness every night."
Psalm 92: 1-2
At many Thanksgiving gatherings, attendees
share what they
are most thankful for before
partaking of a meal. Christians have reasons
to be thankful for Jesus Christ, for forgiveness,
for salvation, for the Scriptures, and more.
Depending on the closeness of the
group, some
individuals may be bold enough to mention more
personal reasons to be thankful:
deliverance from
an addiction, the restoration of a marriage,
a changed life, and more.
As you sit before the Lord today, think of personal,
intimate reasons to give thanks to the Lord, things
to share in a group setting that you know are true.
Every Christian knows who they were before
and
after knowing Christ (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).
Give thanks today for the new person
you are in Him (2 Corinthians 5:17)—
that you are different from how you
were.
Instead of one Thanksgiving Day,
consider living a thanksgiving life.
There are an infinite number of
reasons to give thanks to God.
"God’s giving
deserves
our thanksgiving."
