Thankful for abundance...

on this day. May the lavishness of it make us more mindful of all the Creator and Sustainer has given, rather than neglectful and casual, forgetting Who has made the vines fruitful and the land plentiful.

I saw this quote on a Facebook page and thought it worthwhile to share,
The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts. No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving." ~H.U. Westermayer

I pray that as families gather, as food is eaten, as blessings are lived, that the Lord receive the glory, that the Savior receive the honor, and that His Name be exalted in all the earth amongst believers.

Happy Thanksgiving!

  3. Wisdom worth pondering, there. I often wonder over the faith of the Pilgrims and my own love of comfortable and familiar. To follow their example of gratitude even in struggle and loss!
