Thanksgiving originally was celebrated for prayer of thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Today, family and friends gather together to give thanks and spend time with each other. Now I can not speak for all, but in my house we are giving thanks to the Lord for all the things that He has done for us. We are thankful for family, friends and for God’s mercy and grace. Oh! Where would we be without the Lord, not far. Thanks be to God, that we are able to stand firm on His Word.
Psalm 134 (KJV)
134 Behold, bless ye the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord, which by night stand in the house of the Lord. 2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord. 3 The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.
Father thank you for all that you do for me, my family and friends. Your grace and mercy are immeasurable and the cost is priceless. I love you Lord.
Happy Thanksgiving!
