Thanksgiving Thoughts

“Thanks is one of the great traditional American holidays, and yet it did not originate in America. About three thousand years before it was observed in this country, God spoke to Moses in the days when the great host of Israelite slaves had just escaped from Egypt. They were having their first experience in the wilderness of Sinai. The original proclamation from God is reported in the 23rd chapter of Exodus, 16th verse---“Thou shalt keep the feast of harvest, the first fruits of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field; and the feast of in-gathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou has gathered in they labors out of the field.” ~Sunshine Magazine

If you are really thankful, what do you do? You share. ~W. Clement Stone

May your stuffing be tasty,
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!
