Giving Thanks

For citizens of the United States, the focus of this day is gratitude.  Rightly called Thanksgiving. Day, it gives us the opportunity to gather with family, (indeed, it is the most traveled time of the year), where we first experience God's love and generosity, for a meal dating back to the time of the Pilgirms, who gathered with the Native Americans who had helped them adapt to the life and climate of New England.  It was a time of sharing, joy and gratitude, and so should it be today.  Let differences and divisions cease as we recognize that all is Gift from our Heavenly Father; let peace and confidence replace stress and fear.  Let the words, Happy Thanksgiving mean just that.
