"Since we are receiving a Kingdom that cannot be destroyed, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping him with holy fear and awe"
-- Hebrews 12:28 (NLT)
Sometimes, life here on earth can be complicated, demanding and frustrating. When the demands of life leave us rushing from place to place with scarcely a moment to spare, we may fail to pause and thank our Creator for the countless blessings He bestows upon us. But, whenever we neglect to give proper thanks to the Giver of all things good, we suffer because of our misplaced priorities.
As believers, who have been saved by a risen Christ, we are blessed beyond human comprehension. We who have been given so much should make thanksgiving a habit, a regular part of our daily routines. Of course, God's gifts are too numerous to count, but we should attempt to count them nonetheless. We owe our Heavenly Father everything, including our eternal praise . . . starting right now.

Heavenly Father, Your gifts are greater than we can imagine. May we live each day with thanksgiving in our hearts and praise on our lips. Thank You for the gift of Your Son and for the promise of eternal life. Let us share the joyous news of Jesus Christ, and let our lives be a testimony of His love and His grace. Amen.
** Happy Thanksgiving Everyone **
