I absolutely love the fall with its cool breezes, changing colors, and expectations of things to come.

It is also the season of thanksgiving. For what are you thankful? Our Lord and Savior wants us to be thankful and praise him for all He has given us, and for the people He has put into our lives.

God encourages us to share what we have been given with our family, friends, our pastor and other church workers, and those we may not even know — including the marginalized. We are blessed to be blessings to others. There are several resources available on the LWML website, lwml.org, to help you prepare simple gifts of Thanksgiving for those God has placed in your life.

Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).
