It just amazes me how America and our leaders continually choose to run toward the precipice of self destruction like the proverbial lemmings, but God keeps holding us back from going over the edge time after time.
God bless America! (And He has.) So let us bless Him by giving thanks with a grateful heart today and every day.
A happy and blessed Thanksgiving to you, fellow Freepers and your families!
A happy and wonderful Thanksgiving to you and your family, Perseverando!! (((Hugs))) Mom
Harvest festivals have been held from times immemorial throughout the world. Feasting and praise to whatever powers that made the harvest fruitful possible have been rendered in many places and societies, but the custom of making it a thanksgiving as well as a community celebration seems to taken on a peculiar American embellishment, including intra-family fights and the suppression of generally boorish behavior only as long as mouths are stuffed with food.
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He’s given Jesus Christ His Son...
” “Resolved, in perfect reliance on that gracious Providence which so signally displays its goodness towards this country to reduce the refractory to a due subordination to the law. … To call to mind that, as the people of the United States have been permitted, under Divine favor, in perfect freedom, after solemn deliberation, and in an enlightened age, to elect their own government, so will their gratitude for this inestimable blessing be best distinguished by firm exertions to maintain the Constitution and the laws.”
