Description

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

--1 Thessalonians 5:18

This book is meant to inspire and encourage you in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving Day to really take a little more time to think about what thanksgiving is and how we can be more thankful in our own lives. For those who have children, it is designed to help you show your children what it means to be thankful and cultivate in them a spirit of thankfulness.

We began writing this devotional book for use with our own children. We designed it to be used in the weeks leading up to, and possibly a few days after, our Thanksgiving holiday. It is divided into four parts with suggested thanksgiving memory verses and hymns, along with a fun turkey-themed recipe and thanksgiving craft for each part. It also contains daily devotional readings.

The daily readings range from the definition of thanksgiving to our history of Thanksgiving Day in this country and the many ways in which we can express thanks.

We hope it is a blessing to you and your family, as it has been a blessing to ours to write.

Don't stop with this book. Keep your hearts open to God, and look for ways to express your thankfulness to him

O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.

--Psalm 136:26
