It is a simple fact of life and faith. As you practice gratitude, you will be flooded with more and more good things. And you will become aware of the beauty and goodness that were there in your life all along. Your eyes will open to the world in a new way. And you will become a blessing to those around you as never before. As Robert Louis Stevenson said, "Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind."
This unique and beautiful book invites Christians to celebrate the season of Thanksgiving through thoughtful reflection and grateful living. Lovely hymns, prayers, scriptures, and quotations--from a diverse collection of historical luminaries from Saint Francis of Assisi to William Blake to Albert Einstein--are among the treasures here, along with Abraham Lincoln's "Thanksgiving Day Proclamation" and Louisa May Alcott's short story "An Old-fashioned Thanksgiving." What a wonderful reminder to count our blessings!
