Happy Thanksgiving, yall! While many of you are going to be chowing down on some turkey or other fine delcious dishes, the one thing to make sure to do this Thanksgiving is to give thanks for the little things that you enjoy and the people who bring good times in your life. It could be anything like your thankful for that morning cup of coffee, thankful for your pet, thankful for where you are at in life, thankful for your children or grand children, thankful for your spouse or that you even have a spouse, thankful for your friends or best friend; there is much to be thankful for and you just got to take the time and count your blessings no matter how big or small they are.

And most importantly for those of us who are followers of the Way, give thanks to our Father in Heaven (God The Father) for the wonderful gift of salvation found in Christ Jesus and for adopting us into His family through Him. Indeed we must give thanks to Him for it is a free gift we didn't deserve but He chose to shower us with such mercy and grace. On top of that, He calls us His friends and that friendship is more precious than anything. So definitely we believers today should take the time to give thanks to the Father for: His Son Jesus, salvation in Jesus, and a solid unbreakable friendship with Him. 

No matter where you are today, whether it's at home or visiting friend/family or off to a fun spot, count your many blessings with much joy and give thanks.
