God is Great..... God is Good
Let us Thank Him for our food.
By His hands we are fed,
He gives to us our daily bread.
Amen

"In every thing give thanks: for this is the will
of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
I Thessalonians 5:18

Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat,
Thank you for the birds that sing,
Thank you, God, for everything.
~E. Rutter Leatham~

Come, Lord Jesus, be our guest,
And may our meal by you be blest.
~Martin Luther (1483 - 1546)~

Oh....... the Lord is good to me and so I thank the Lord
for giving me the things I need
the sun and the rain and the apple tree
the Lord is good to me.

Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest man
it comes as frequently
as the heart of gratitude will allow,
which may mean every day, or at least seven days.
~Edward Sanford Martin~

A Grace for Every Day
Lord, you know what we need even before we ask you,
and you give us each day our daily bread.
Help us to eat it with grateful hearts.

Count your blessings name them one by one
Count your blessings see what God has done
Count your blessing name them one by one
Then it will surprise you what the Lord has done.
~a lovely song I remember from childhood~

Sharing

is another way to show you are thankful to the Lord for the wonderful people He has
placed in your life.

my brethren, ye have done it unto me."

"For the Christian, Thanksgiving is not an annual holiday, it is a
lifestyle. A spirit of thankfulness marks the person who truly loves
Jesus Christ. Gratitude for His great sacrifice for us motivates
our obedience, checks our sinfulness, and fans into flame
our love and devotion to Him."
~From Family Celebrations Meeting Christ in Your Holidays and Special Occasions
by Ann Hibbard~

"Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth
us with benefits,even the God
of our salvation. Selah.
Psalm 68:19 KJV

"Grace and peace to you from God our Father
and from the Lord Jesus Christ."
Romans 1:7
