I'm going to start posting the text of my Facebook weekly Thursday videos here. I should have been doing this all along, but of course I never saved the texts...just the videos. Here's the one for Thanksgiving Day.
This week, I’ll not regale you with my thoughts on a
particular subject as I normally do.
Instead, I’ll leave you with encouragement to truly take stock of life
and living, with the idea of concentrating on those things for which you are grateful.
It is said that the more things and resources we have, the
more we tend to gripe and complain about those things we don’t have. And that some of the most grateful and
thankful people are those who have very little in the way of things and resources.
If you have a place inside to sleep at night; if you are
relatively warm in the winter; if you have food to eat; if you have people in
your life who you call friends or better yet, loved ones…you really have no
reason to complain or gripe.
Enjoy this time of the year when we give thanks not only for
the temporal and material, but also for the eternal and spiritual. God is.
God lives. And God
loves…you. Blessings.
