Theme: Love and Humility

God commands us to love one another…even those who wrong us. And He’s not talking about sharing just a little bit of love. God makes it clear He expects us to love others as much as we love ourselves. That’s a pretty high standard. How often do we hold a grudge against ourselves? Or seek revenge against ourselves? That’s how God expects us to love others as well. We’re not to seek vengeance (God will take care of that). We’re not to hold a grudge. We’re to love each other.

Doogie - Be Thankful – 1 Chronicles 16:34 (Week 47)

(we received this comment via email)… Another excellent post! And just to carry the historical aspect with regard to our nation one step further, the resolution adopted by Congress actually urged President Washington to declare “a national day of thanksgiving and prayer” (emphasis supplied), but in today’s times we seem to forget that second part. In fact, the very first line of President Washington’s proclamation establishing our nation’s first Thanksgiving states “Whereas 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...” The full text of the proclamation is available at: https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Washington/05-04-02-0091 Our Founding Fathers recognized and gave thanks to God above all first and foremost, and we would be well-served to do the same!
