It’s not just on Thanksgiving,
that we’re to be thankful . . .
it’s not only on this day
that we’re to be grateful.
It’s about being satisfied,
each day in every way
it’s about our attitude
in all we do and say.
It’s not about the tasty food,
on today’s white linen table
it’s not about the fine dining
on Thanksgiving Day’s staples.
It’s about the provisions,
God gives us all year through
it’s about what with them
we choose and opt to do.
It’s not about what we have,
or counting all our blessings
it’s not about the pumpkin pie
or the turkey’s sausage dressing.
It’s all about us sharing,
with those who have not
it’s all about helping others . . .
in deed not just in thought!

“We are bound to thank God
always for you, brethren,
as it is meet, because that
your faith groweth exceedingly,
and the charity of every
one of you all toward each
other aboundeth;”
