Celebrating Christ Through the YearThanksgiving
Many Pilgrims came to this new land looking for religious freedoms and after a year of hardship and many deaths, they stopped to give thanks to God for his provision and bountiful harvest. So while you’re stuffing yourself full of turkey this Thanksgiving, remember all that God has given you.
Also remember the Pilgrims who traveled to a foreign land in order to worship as they see fit. Be thankful you live in a country that gives you this religious freedom and don’t forget to pray for those who are persecuted for their faith.
And because all my creativity and energy is spent homeschooling and working on my novel, here are some great posts about Thanksgiving how God works in the our lives! Something we should be truly thankful for!
