Every November millions of Americans celebrate
Thanksgiving. It is the busiest travel
time of the year as friends and family gather
together in celebration of the blessings of
another year. Other countries celebrate a day
of thanksgiving at other times but the
importance of a day set aside to count one's
blessings is not lost on Christians and
non-Christians alike.
Christians have much to be thankful for.
There are the normal blessings of life but even
more so, there is our forgiveness in Jesus
Christ and our assurance of eternal life.
These devotions focus on what it means to be
thankful and some of the specific things that we
as Christians should be thankful for. In
truth, we can never thank God enough for
everything He has done for us.
Some time during this month, take a few
moments and write down something that you are
thankful for, one thing for every letter of the
alphabet. They can be really simple things
that you'd miss if you lived in a world without
them. We'll get you started...
