ple. It contains the words many of us remember well: “Count your many blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.” As far back as I can remember, I have been in numerous congregations and heard those words sung during the thanksgiving season. Those words are poignant reminders of a profound thought: If we take the time and effort to take note of them, every day is precious because it is filled with both little and big surprises from some source that make life pleasant and give it real meaning and genuine significance. Thursday, November 22 is a significant holiday in our land. We call it Thanksgiving and rightly so, for it commemorates a great heritage. On Thanksgiving Day, this nation will pause, hopefully, to remember the hardy Pilgrims at Plymouth and the big feast they shared with friendly Indians as they took time from their labor to give thanks to God for surviving a severe winter with very little food and arriving at the first harvest they experienced in the new world. In commemoration of that rich heritage, many families will gather around a heavyladen table and indulge in a big feast and call it thanksgiving. But true thanksgiving is more, much more, than a family coming together to share big feast of turkey, dressing, and all the trimmings that go with them. An anonymous individual has written, “Gratitude is the memory of the heart,” and all of my life I have heard, “The mouth speaks what the heart is full of.” Now, gratitude is a feeling of appreciation for things or benefits received and remembered, and thanksgiving is the verbal expression of this feeling. When we remember all of the things---both little and big surprises---we have received, our hearts overflow with gratitude, and sincere expressions of thanks follow. That’s true thanksgiving, for it comes from the heart.
