From Wednesday, November 6th through Tuesday, December 3rd
Psalm 118:1
Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!
As we grow in thankfulness toward God for all He has and will do on our behalf, we also grow in our generosity toward others. We tend to thank our family more for their love. We find ourselves thanking our teachers for their input and guidance. We thank our friends for their kindness and presence in our lives. When we use what God has given us to bless others those who have received a gift return thanks to God for his provision. What an amazing cycle of Thanks+Giving! This is the season we step into now. May you be blessed and encouraged as you seek to increase your Thanks+Giving to God and those around you.
