A Happy American Thanksgiving

We Canadians have our Thanksgiving holiday in October, but the Americans are revving up for theirs this coming Thursday. It almost feels like we get a second Thanksgiving, because all our Canadian stores are having Black Friday Sales and I believe a Cyber-Monday is coming up too.

Businesses may not care about giving God thanks for all their blessings, but they don't want to be left behind a chance to make money on the coat-tails of the USA holidays.

Personally, I think we should be thanking God every day - even all day long. To that end I start my devotional times each morning with a time to thank the LORD, for the big blessings - like Salvation, Eternal LIFE, Adoption into God's Family, and the guidance of the HOLY SPIRIT, etc.

In the evenings when I'm ready to pull my feet into bed, I open my Blessing book, and record every highlight of the day and anything good that happened to me all day long. Often I can't stop until I have at least 10 items in my list. That exercise does wonders for falling asleep with a contented smile on my face.

So don't wait for a holiday on the calendar. Give thanks as often as you can, and if you need help - try to make it a new habit in the mornings and/or also in the evenings.

Both your smiling and your "faith" muscles will grow!
