THANKSGIVING DAY

HAVE YOU STOPPED TO THINK WHY SECULAR AMERICA LAYS ASIDE "ONE" DAY TO THANK THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE FOR ITS WELL-BEING?

WE HAVE ALL HEARD THE STORY OF THE FIRST THANKSGIVING THE PILGRIMS SPENT IN PLYMOUTH, MASSACHUSSETS. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE GROUP WAS AT THE POINT OF STARVATION WHEN SOME NATIVE AMERICANS OFFERED THEM SOME OF THEIR FOOD.

WELL, THE STORY AND THE TIMES MAY SEEM REMOTE OR FAR-FETCHED; BUT, THE LORD CONTINUES TO BLESS US ALL IN SUCH MIRACULOUS WAYS. WE DON'T KNOW TO WHAT EXTENT THE LORD'S MERCY AND LOVE, PROVIDES US WITH OUR FOOD AND EVERYDAY NEEDS.

I BELIEVE THAT EVERYDAY OUGHT TO BE THANKSGIVING DAY. HOW CAN A PERSON THANK HIS CREATOR JUST ONCE A YEAR? DOES HE NOT PUT FOOD ON YOUR TABLE DAILY? DOES HE NOT BLESS YOU WITH YOUR "AMERICAN DREAM" LIFE? "A CHICKEN IN EVERY POT", ETC.*

WE AS A WHOLE HAVE DEFFECTED FROM OUR CREATOR. BUT, IT'S UP TO THE INDIVIDUAL TO SEEK THE WILL OF GOD ALMIGHTY. TO PLEASE HIM IN YOUR EVERYDAY LIVING, TO THANK HIM IN OUR EVERY DEED.

HAS IT EVER OCCURED TO YOU THAT THIS THAKSGIVING DAY MANY HAVE NOTHING TO EAT RIGHT HERE IN OUR UNITED STATES OF AMERICA? AROUND THE WORLD SOME PEOPLE ARE GRATEFUL IF THEY EAT "ONCE" A DAY!

SAY GRACE EVERY TIME YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT. DON'T WAIT FOR THANKSGIVING TO THANK THE LORD FOR YOU MEAL.

THE LORD PROVIDES FOR "YOU" 365 DAYS A YEAR.

WHY THANK HIM ONLY ONCE? IF THIS WERE A FRACTION (MATH) IT WOULD BE 1/365;

OR IF YOU INVERT THE EQUATION: 365/1. THE LORD IS SO MERCIFUL. THAT NUMBER IS INSIGNIFICANT EVEN TO THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW MATH. THANK THE LORD DAILY IS MY SUGGESTION; HE WANTS TO KNOW YOU APPRECIATE HIM.

*THINK ABOUT THIS NEXT TIME YOU CLEAN-OFF YOUR PLATE.
