From God's Best for My Life by Lloyd John Ogilvie:
'A little boy of a Vietnamese refugee family was having a difficult time learning English. He had a particular problem with "g's" and "l's." On Thanksgiving Day he attended church services with his family. After the service he tried hard to join in the Thanksgiving greeting. He shook hands and said, "Happy Thanks-living!"
Not a bad description of real thanksgiving. When we are truly thankful, it radically affects our living - our relationships, attitudes, moods, actions, and reaction.
God's grace, plus our gratitude, equals greatness. When we give God the glory, greatness grows in our character. We become affirmers of others. When is the last time told people in your life that you are thankful for them?'
Winners have a happy thanks-living!
