Hap Happy Thanksgiving~

“For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused,

if it be received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified

by the word of God and prayer.”


Timothy 4:4-5

A Caring Heart

Walk through life with a caring heart,
You'll always find someone in need;
Go out of your way to help,
And you will be blessed by the deed.

For all life's blessings are born,
From a heart that's filled with love,
And all your good acts are seen
By the eyes of God above.


So as you travel through life
Always find some time to spare,
To give someone a helping hand,
With a heart that is full of care.

An Attitude of Gratitude

 

We all lead such hectic life's that sometimes the people and the things

that matter the most to us are right in front of our eyes, yet we are so

busy we don't seem to see them… It is so very important in these

 tumultuous times to start developing an “attitude for gratitude”. 

Therefore, being careful not to take people or the things that

we have for granted and being grateful and thankful for the

things that we do have and in turn sharing this gratitude with

the people we love and even with strangers who show us

kindness or are in need kindness, whichever may be the case...

Praising the Lord is one of the best ways to express our thanks

and gratitude to God for His blessings and yet how many of us do so

on a regular basis… We normally go through our routines of thanking

God for the food we eat, our family and friends and sometimes

we even thank Him for the clothes we wear and maybe even the car

that we drive. However, it is at Thanksgiving or the Holidays that we

may even list out our blessing and reflect on what God has done

for us. But shouldn’t we offer Him sacrifice of praise, gratitude

  and thanksgiving continually…Let’s not wait for a Holiday and

start to practice the “attitude of gratitude”…{smile}

It these trying times where there are so many people struggling

to make ends meet, I know that is hard to give and I know

that sometimes because our fast paced living we do not

have the energy left to even give of ourselves ...

 And so you know, it is not always about money, or the energy

we do not have... It is about caring and wanting to do

something nice or special for someone else.  It does not

have to be family, or friend, but perhaps a stranger a

in need of a helping hand...

There are so many little things that we can do for someone,

like filling a basket with  a Thanksgiving meal and bringing it

to their home, or making a phone call to show that you

care and are thinking of them.  The kindness that give to

others will always comes come back to  you ten folds...

We can do a little something special during the holiday.  Its

 like planting a little seed of kindness, thanks, and  the

"attitude of gratitude" all in one, and then watching it grow...

If we do not know person whom we can help then we can

ask in our Churches and even our neighbor if they know

 of a person who is in need or lives alone or just needs

to know that someone cares.  I know we can make this

holiday twice as special and we can make this

"attitude of gratitude" a way of life...

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and

may God Bless You, abundantly,

Happy Thanksgiving

Together let us join our hands
On this Thanksgiving Day.
Let us join our hearts as well
As we bow our heads to pray.

Give thanks for friends and family
For food that He has supplied.
All the wondrous things He's done,
And the needs He does provide.

 

If we hear of someone lonely
Let's ask them our food to share.
Tell them about our Father's love,
And show them that we care.

I'll be thinking of YOU! this day
Of Thanksgiving days gone past.
The memories of your friendship
In my heart will forever last.

Lord God, no matter what I own, what I might possess,

without You I have nothing.  Turn my sight from this

world, dear God, and help me to seek only You,

body, mind, and soul. 

Praise be His Holy name, Amen.
