For hearts that are kindly, with virtue and peace,
and not seeking blindly a hoard to increase
for those who are grieving o’er life’s sordid plan
for souls still believing in heaven and man
for homes that are lowly with love at the board
for things that are holy, I thank thee, O Lord!"
Grace isn’t a little prayer you chant
before receiving a meal.
Rather, it’s a way to live,
Being thankful to God for everything you have.
Happy Thanksgiving!
"Thanksgiving is an emotional holiday.
People travel thousands of miles to be with people they only see once a year.
And then discover once a year is way too often."
The unthankful heart... discovers no mercies
but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and,
as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour
some heavenly blessings!
"Happiness is the realization of God in the heart.
Happiness is the result of praise and thanksgiving,
of faith, of acceptance; a quiet tranquil realization of the love of God."
