Thanksgiving is a time of giving thanks (obviously).
But split the word in half, add a few other words in the middle, and you have a totally different understanding of the word that remains true to the holiday.
Instead of a day of thanks giving, it’s a day of thanks that leads to giving.
The holiday season reminds us to be thankful, which, in turn, spurs us towards greater benevolence and charity to others. This is an attitude we should deliberately manifest in our lives as much as possible.

CloseWhen Peter is talking to the churches in 2 Peter 2 about Persecution, he brings up one interesting name: Lot. We don't often remember Lot for his goodness, but Peter says that his "righteous soul was vexed" by the immorality that was around him daily. Daniel was in the same boat. Exiled in Babylon after the destruction of Judah, Daniel lived decades in a land that was pagan in every sense of the word: religiously, culturally, emotionally, and physically. Many of us know how those two men felt. How do we survive in a pagan world that is hostile to all things Christ? The same way they did.
