My favorite time of the year is Thanksgiving. Christmas is also one of my favorite but its meaning is over shadowed by the commercial and cultural aspects of it. Not so with Thanksgiving. There's no giving of gifts. Don't have to worry about giving and receiving. It's just a time to enjoy with our families and be grateful for all God has given us. Thanks-giving. It's clear. You can't interpret in many ways. Of course, it has a historical meaning that some revisionists see differently. But whatever the case, it is still Thanks-giving. Thanks-giving teaches not to be selfish. When we are thankful we are saying we are content with what we have been given. It isn't a time to complaint. Just thankful! Thankful it is Thanksgiving. Just before Black Friday. So appropriate. What are you thankful for?
I post about my relationship with the Triune God as He has revealed Himself in The Holy Scriptures, the Bible. Escribo sobre lo que estoy aprendiendo de mi relación con mi Padre Dios, Dios Trino tal como se ha revelado en las Sagradas Escrituras, la Biblia. Follower of Jesus. Husband. Father. Teacher. Pastor. Salvadorean by birth, Hispanic-American. Amateur Runner. Bibliophile. Seguidor de Jesús, esposo, papá, pastor, nacido en el Salvador, hispano-americano, corredor amateur y bibliófila.
