Summary: As we begin our trek into the holiday season, I thought it would be best to review and study the importance of being thankful. I have decided to recall a word I adopted as my own a few years ago: Thankology.

your complete spiritual connection with Him

everlasting life with Him

love which goes beyond all understanding

your sentness in his image

His Love to be in you as a witness of Jesus to the world

Warren Weirsbe said, “one of the things that most impresses the world is the way Christians love each other and live together in harmony… The lost world cannot see God, but they can see Christians, and what they see in us is what they will believe about God… we must make sure our witness is true and loving.” commentary 371

“16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned,...”

Be Thankful because:

God loves you so much He would die for you.

God created you to be in relationship with Him. As the song says, “God calls you friend.”

God gave you free will. Love without free will is hostage taking.

God wants to share his glory through you.

God created you with a purpose. You only need to accept your role.

God has sent you, his image bearer, to be His witnesses. You are God’s assistant in changing the world.

Just as that young boy in mrs. Klein's class recognized her hand, this Thanksgiving we only need to recognize God's hand as it extends to us. It's His grace and mercy we all need to be most grateful for.
