Thanksgiving Day 2009

I can’t believe it is two more days to November!

For us in Indonesia, the last two days of October do not hold any significance. But for our friends living in the USA and other parts of the globe, today is Thanksgiving Day. And tomorrow is All Hallows’ Eve (Halloween).

It is the time to bring in the autumn crops: the time of rejoicing and giving thanks for God’s supplication. Soon it will be winter, and there won’t be any planting and harvesting for the next three months.

Thanksgiving Day is the perfect moment to celebrate the Lord’s goodness in giving us provision before the coming of snow and frost. So, let’s gather those crops into storage and serve pumpkin pie and turkey on the dining table. It’s time to celebrate!

Happy Thanksgiving Day!
