Thanksgiving! What a wonderful feeling to have. What causes thanksgiving in your life? What are you thankful for? While many people, myself included, are thankful for a job, food, shelter, and transportation, the root of that is Jesus. Jesus is what we should really be thankful for. God says in the gospels that He even takes care of the sparrow, making sure it is prosperous and we are even more important than the birds of the sky. What He means is, you WILL be taken care of. We have no reason to worry.
I will be really open with you right now…I don't understand poverty, I don't understand the homeless population and the hunger, the trials and disasters… That's not for me to understand. I do know however, that God has everything under control and has a plan for everyone and everything, from the birds to the impoverished, to the uber-wealthy. Everyone has something to be thankful for, and many people in sad situations tend to turn their thanks to God, simply for life. Consider your life and what you are really thankful for. Did Jesus bless you with it, or did you get it on your own?
