Happy Thanksgiving!

I wish all my American readers a very happy Thanksgiving Day holiday! This is my favorite holiday, and we celebrate it as our biggest day of the year. I have fond memories of this day as a child: cozy in my home while snowflakes peppered the skies outside, and the smells of pumpkin pie and baking turkey filled the house inside. My step-dad almost always went hunting before the big meal (he was an accomplished bowsman as well as a rifleman), and usually came home with something. Our woodstove simmered the hot teapot, and my brothers and I ceased our bickering that day!

As an adult with kids of my own, and especially as a Christian, Thanksgiving Day takes on a deeper meaning than food and a warm home. We now celebrate this day in praise and thanks to God through His Son, Jesus the Messiah. I saw this excellent video, done by Coral Ridge Ministries out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida (by the late Dr. D. James Kennedy), and wanted to share it. It’s great!

I hope you have a blessed day. :) Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for life and love, Jesus!
