The expression of gratitude, especially to God. Being grateful or thankful. Thankful that God sent His Son to be Savior of the world. Grateful for His grace, unmerited favor. Favor bestowed on sinners who deserve wrath. Yes, Jesus took upon Himself the wrath of God, poured out at the cross. Believing I am a sinner, saved by grace, enables me to live in a state of thanksgiving every day! Thankful to God for every breath I take. For every beat of my heart. Thankful to share God’s love with others who are looking for love, for hope, for peace in their lives. Seeing the blessings of God in His wonderful creation each day, from the rising of the sun to its setting each evening. Grateful for the people who come across our path for a season or for a lifetime, to the kindness of a stranger. Thankful to God for the ability to live in a country blessed by God. For the ability to freely worship and praise the name of Jesus, Savior of the world!
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
Happy Thanksgiving. Giving thanks to God!
