A Tribute to
Thanksgiving Day
As was done by the Pilgrims many years ago, we give thanks
for the many harvests with which God has made our lives so
abundant. It is fine and fitting that a plump, roasted tur
key .. symbol of Thanksgiving Day . . should grace our table
for all to enjoy. Yet it is fitting, too, that we should pause in
our Bountiful Feasting and really give Spiritual thanks to
Him who has made all these things possible. Let us be rev
erent .. as well as just humanly hungry . . this Thanksgiving.
Let's look beyond that table loaded with food .. . and remem
ber our blessings in all humility!
