I am happlily married with 5 kids. I am an accoutant and worked in an accounting field for over 25 years. I like to make a habit of writing down whenever I have deep thoughts about God (so I won't forget). I really into Reformed Theology that is connected to Presbyterian Church in America.

Spirit of Thanksgiving

Thanks be to God--through Jesus Christ our Lord! (Romans 7:25). Everyone at some time feels a sense of gratitude for benefits received however there are some who are not as expressive. We probably often hear hear thanks given and acknowledged right and left without mention of God. Spiritual thankfulness is put into words has a spiritual healing effect upon our souls and has a good effect upon those who hear. Spiritual thanksgiving is that we could rejoice because we count God's promises and provisions greater than our trials. We have the understanding of what pleases God; our thoughts, our desires, our affections that are transformed in over time. Christianity is radical because we change from old nature to the new nature, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of God that created us. Happy Thanksgiving !!!!
