Scripture: 1st Chronicles 29:12-13

Riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all. In your hand are power and might; and it is in your hand to make great and to give strength to all. And now, our God, we give thanks to you and praise your glorious name.

Thought for the Day: The author, Henry Van Dyke, wrote: “Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.” For all we have received, let us make sure we follow the path presented by Van Dyke and make it to Thanksgiving, not so much the holiday but the impulse to express the inward feeling of gratitude.

Prayer: For all that I have received, O God, I am more than thankful. I commit myself to the work of seeing the emotion I feel expressed in true acts of thanksgiving that positively impact the world around me. Amen.
