And, hopefully, give;
To be a cheerful giver
Is a good way to live.
So, though there’s a holiday
To help us remember,
That rolls around
Each year in November,
We shouldn’t wait ‘til then
To be thankful and giving.
It should be a part
Of our everyday living.
There is always so much
To be thankful about.
Gratefulness is a practice
We can’t thrive without.
And it’s God who gives us
Every good thing,
In every season,
Not just Thanksgiving.
He deserves all our thanks
Each day that we live,
And His kindness
Should make us want to give.
Meditate on all He’s done
If you need a reason,
But let “thanks” and “giving”
Be more than just a season.
