“Thanksgiving is a time for families and friends to gather together and express gratitude for all that we have been given, the freedoms we enjoy, and the loved ones who enrich our lives. We recognize that all of these blessings, and life itself, come not from the hand of man but from Almighty God.”

“Thanksgiving is a typically American holiday. In spite of its religious form (giving thanks to God for a good harvest), its essential, secular meaning is a celebration of successful production. It is a producers’ holiday. The lavish meal is a symbol of the fact that abundant consumption is the result and reward of production. Abundance is (or was and ought to be) America’s pride-just as it is the pride of American parents that their children need never know starvation.”

“Thanksgiving is an emotional holiday. People travel thousands of miles to be with people they only see once a year. And then discover once a year is way too often.”

“Thanksgiving is inseparable from true prayer; it is almost essentially connected with it. One who always prays is ever giving praise, whether in ease or pain, both for prosperity and for the greatest adversity. He blesses God for all things, looks on them as coming from Him, and receives them for His sake- not choosing nor refusing, liking or disliking,anything, but only as it is agreeable or disagreeable to His perfect will.”

“Thanksgiving is so called because we are all so thankful that it only comes once a year.”

“Thanksgiving is the day when you turn to another family member and say, 'How long has Mom been drinking like this?' My Mom, after six Bloody Marys looks at the turkey and goes, 'Here, kitty, kitty.'”

“Thanksgiving isn’t just a date on a calendar… It’s a reminder of the power of a grateful mindset. Gratitude softens the heart, sharpens perspective, and turns seemingly ordinary moments into sacred ones. Today is a great day to slow down, breathe, and recognize how blessed we truly are… that nothing is too small to be thankful for. Thanksgiving reminds us that a grateful mindset can be a quiet miracle that changes everything. Gratitude is the most vital ingredient of a healthy perspective… turning scarcity into abundance, pain into wisdom, and day-to-day experiences into gifts. Happy Thanksgiving. May the spirit of gratitude fill your heart and home.”
