Thanksgiving 

“I give thanks to my God always on your account for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus, that in him you were enriched in every way, with all discourse and all knowledge, as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you, so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift as you wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 COR 1: 4-7) 

“I give thanks to my God always” is so important. The United States of America (USA) has a special day called “Thanksgiving” to remember and to be grateful. It is good to celebrate as often as possible every “grace of God” for “any spiritual gift” we have received; it is so good for us to be grateful. When we are grateful, we start seeing the world as a place where God is a king, not a satan and where good always wins, because Our Lord controls everything and in Him we are winners. “In all circumstances, give thanks.” 

“In all circumstances, give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.” (Gospel Acclamation)
