Thanksgiving Idea

Attached is a link to a pdf file of Thanksgiving letters and a poem.  There is a couple of lines that goes with each letter.  The letters are each letter of the word Thanksgiving and the lines of the poem go with each letter.  I used this one year in my Kings Kids group.  Each child help up their letter one at a time, then quoted their lines until the word Thanksgiving was spelled out.  You are welcome to use this idea if you would like.  You can go HERE for the free download. It may prompt you for a password in which case you can enter givethanks. It is quite a big file so may take a little while to download.   You can get and idea what the letters look like below and read the poem that I used.  Click on the picture to get a larger view.  Feel free to use it any way you would like. 

Thanksgiving-1

Or here is another poem you could use.  I don’t know where I got it and therefore do not know who to give the credit.  Have you heard it before?   Anyway, have fun!

T..... is for our thankfulness for many joys and blessings...
H..... is for our homes so warm and bright...
A..... is for autumn, time for harvest and abundance...
N..... is for nature's beauty and delight...
K..... is for the kitchens where good food is cooked with love...
S..... for spicy fragrances in the air...
G..... is for the gathering of family and friends...
I..... for the inheritance we share...
V..... is for the vision that the Pilgrims held so dear...
I..... is for high ideals in all they planned...
N..... is for our native country brave and great and free...
G..... for God's great goodness to our land.

Wednesday’s Wisdom

1 Kings 8:61  Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day. How much do we give? Psalms 96:8-9 “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name:” (Give Praise and worship) “bring an offering, and come into his courts.” (Give personal wealth) “O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.” (Give practical witness) “ God wants our praise.  The world needs our practical witness of a holy life.  and we need to give our personal wealth.  God does not need our gifts-but we need to give.  The greatest gift we can give is to give our lives to His service. ~The above is from My Morning Manna, vol. 3, p. 226, by Ed Nelson
