Thanksgiving is a day where we gather around the table
with family and friends. But what does is actually mean?
Let's turn to our Bibles and see, in 1 Timothy 4:4-5 Since
everything God created is good, we should not reject any
of it but receive it with thanks. For we know it is made
acceptable by the word of God and prayer.
Paul explains the importance of receiving food with
thanks, through worship and gratitude. He explains
that food is a gift from God, and we should receive it
with thanks, it's not about filling our belly full of
delicious food but it's the act of thanking God,
because he is our provider and supporter in our
daily lives.
When we believe in God the Father, God the Son,
and God the Holy Spirit, we know the truth and are
able to give thanks when we receive food, this type
of gratitude is an act of worship.
So, remember as you gather around the table at
Thanksgiving let's remember the importance of
gratitude. It is not how good the food is, it's about
the thankfulness in our hearts, acknowledging
God as our provider and supporter in life, and
that eating is a form of worship.
God Bless and for daily motivation
