A Thanksgiving Prayer
Over the years our nation’s leaders have recognized the importance of setting aside
a day to give thanks for all that God has given us.
It is a day to share food with friends and family,
and to seek ways for sharing God’s bounty with those around us.
We recognize that food does not just magically appear.
We give thanks for the farmers and farm workers who plant and harvest our food.
We pray that all immigrants who come to our nation,
including the many who plant and harvest our food,
will be treated with respect and hospitality.
We give thanks for the workers who process and package our food.
We pray that these workers and all workers
will be paid wages that allow them to put food on their own tables.
Food and the sharing of food is the work of many people.
As we pause this Thanksgiving,
let us seek new ways to share our nation’s prosperity with all who labor.
And let us pledge ourselves anew to be a people of sharing and thanksgiving.

My heart has been Over-Joyed! I woke this morning with such a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the simple wonderfulness that is my life. For all the weird unpleasant stuff going on, we had a quiet, abundant Joy-Filled day.
I sincerely hope that your Thanksgiving was as wonderful.
Thank you for being one of my Blessings…
