Unfortunately, yes. It is our duty a God's children to pray for their blessings even more actually.

(1 Peter 3:8-12)
8 To sum up, let all be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; 9 not returning evil for evil, or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose [because unto this you were called] that you might inherit a blessing. 10 For, “Let him who means to love life and see good days Refrain his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking guile. 11 “And let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it. 12 “For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, And His ears attend to their prayer, But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

God will take care of them...

Happy Thanksgiving!

"We are grateful for our freedom, grateful for our families and friends, and grateful for the many gifts of America. On Thanksgiving Day, we acknowledge that all of these things, and life itself, come from the Almighty God."

Our gifts come from God, and they're protected by our fine armed forces. God bless them all over this Thanksgiving holiday weekend!!

Thank you, Valin! I went and found a nice copy of Lincoln's Proclamation and a copy of it is going on everyone's plate at our Thanksgiving Dinner tomorrow.

If for no better reason than to watch my socialist Brother-in-Law's head explode, LOL!

*Smooch*
