What Is Thanksgiving

~Holding a thought of gratitude for the life we’ve been given

~Holding closely thoughts of God’s goodness, for they are new every day

~Being grateful in the small things and in the large and looming circumstances

~Seeing a butterfly in flight and giving thanks

~Hearing the laughter of your grandchild

~Anticipating the embrace of that one who is making a last minute effort to come home to her family’s embrace for Thanksgiving

~Remembering the ones who work on this day to provide us the blanket of safety and security we depend upon

Let us pause and give God thanks.

Loving God:

From the depths of our soul we offer a simple ‘thank you’.

Your mercies are abundant and undeserved.

Your bounty is more than we should expect.

Your protection is ever with us.

Your love exceeds anything we can comprehend.

We give you thanks, God almighty.

We give you praise and adoration, for we are mere mortals in the sight of an omnipotent God, yet you dared to create us and love us with something called ‘unconditional love’. 

Our hearts are full of gratitude.  Our words seem so inadequate before your might and power.

And so we simply say – “Thank You God!  We give heartfelt thanks.
