A lot has been said throughout history regarding Thanksgiving..
A lot of wonderful things to consider!
Hebrews 13:15: "By him, therefore, let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name."
George Washington: "It is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor."
Edward Sandford Martin: "Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest man it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allow."
Ralph Waldo Emerson: "For each new morning with its light / For rest and shelter of the night / For health and food, for love and friends / For everything Thy goodness sends."
O. Henry: "There is one day that is ours. There is one day when all we Americans who are not self-made go back to the old home to eat saleratus biscuits and marvel how much nearer to the porch the old pump looks than it used to. Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American."
Cynthia Ozick: "We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude."
Robert Casper Lintner: "Thanksgiving is nothing if not a glad and reverent lifting of the heart to God in honor and praise for His goodness."
William Jennings Bryan: "On Thanksgiving Day we acknowledge our dependence."
