Gratitude and Thanksgiving

Gratitude/Thanksgiving
 
Hello Everyone,
As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving, let us take some time out and think about the goodness of our Creator and what He has done and continues to do in our lives.  It’s all about gratitude and being appreciative of the many blessings that we receive each day. 

Please see the questions below to share with your family if you like. 

• What does Thanksgiving mean to you and why?
• What are some of your Thanksgiving family traditions?
• Do you have any Thanksgiving memories?
• Is Thanksgiving mostly about food for you or is it more than that?
• Do you know how Thanksgiving came to be celebrated in the US?
• Is it important to spend Thanksgiving with your family and why?
• What’s your favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal?
• What are you most thankful for?
• What, from this year, do you feel most grateful for?
• What, from your entire life, do you feel most grateful for?

  
Let’s not forget about those who may be alone, sick, or struggling financially.
 
 
Thanksgiving is a time for love
To come together and to thank the Creator up above

For all that He Has done for us each and every day
We don't have to have much to appreciate life in a very special way

We all are here to hold each other hands and so much more
We have to know what's important like never before

Thanksgiving is about sharing and to give
Peace and hope in the world so we all can live
 
It's so crazy out here but the Creator has us in the palm of His hands
Don't give up but always get strength from the Lord to stand

Let’s be thankful for the many blessings we receive throughout our day
Let’s not let trials distract us or get in our way
 
Trials are temporary but when we put Him first, we see life in another way
Let's always be thankful each and every day

Happy Thanksgiving from us to you
Know that you're blessed to be able to do what you do.
 
I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.  We are so blessed to have family and friends and most of all the ability to live another day.  Please value time with your loved ones and know that you’re blessed. 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
 
Amen and thank you Lord
