Thanksgiving should be every day
How do you plan to spend the holiday of Thanksgiving? Is the planning of a large dinner and serving it to those you love, high on your list? Fellowship, mouth-watering food to tickle you pallet and getting together with loved ones is certainly a worthy goal. The pilgrims first celebrated Thanksgiving in 1621, after their first harvest in the new world. The feast lasted three days, and according to attendee Edward Winslow, it was attended by 90 Native Americans and 53 Pilgrims (Wikipedia). From the readings in history, the pilgrims felt they had much for which to be thankful. They were being appreciative for God's protection on the way over to America, and God's providing food through their harvest. Many dreams were fulfilled within them.
