Thanksgiving Blessings
November 26, 2009 by Lillie
I have many blessings to thank God for this Thanksgiving. You, my readers, are among those blessings.
May you be blessed with much to be thankful for and gratitude for even the smallest blessings.
MOST gracious God, by whose knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew; We yield thee unfeigned thanks and praise for the return of seed- time and harvest, for the increase of the ground and the gathering in of the fruits thereof, and for all the other blessings of thy merciful providence bestowed upon this nation and people. And, we beseech thee, give us a just sense of these great mercies; such as may appear in our lives by an humble, holy, and obedient walking before thee all our days; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be all glory and honour, world without end. Amen.
So many blessings this year for me, but most of all that my oldest son is home from war. We missed him so much last year. We treasure every moment. Thanksgiving blessings to you.

Thank you, Helen. I certainly have been incredibly blessed.
There are lots of things worth celebrating in my life. Events to be thankful for,we owe everything to God.
sallysmith,
Sometimes people forget that we owe everything to God. It’s good to be grateful for our blessings and remember where they came from.
I hope you had a good Thanksgiving and that you were able to spend some time with your family. It is really nice to take a little break sometimes and spend some time with family. Not to mention, all the great food

Steve,
We had a lovely day, indeed, and hope you did too.
It will probably take me till Christmas to work off all the weight from the food I ate! Then I’ll have Christmas dinner to work off after that. lol
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
Bill,
I know what you mean. But wasn’t it good?
I am thankful for you too, Lillie for such a beautiful prayer. I hope you had great thanks giving.
prash,
We had a lovely Thanksgiving. Thank you.
I love the prayers from the 1928 Book of Common Prayer. They are all beautiful.
Despite so many struggles, I can still say that I received so many blessings from the man above. And because of these struggles and blessings, I become a better person. Wonderful prayer!
Jack,
Everyone should have your attitude. We all have both struggles and blessings, but too many people focus on the struggles and ignore the blessings.
