CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY NOVEMBER 24, 2022
AN ESTIMATED 55 MILLION PEOPLE ARE, OR HAVE BEEN, ON THE MOVE THIS THANKSGIVING SEASON, THE LARGEST NUMBER SINCE 2019 BEFORE COVID TOOK HOLD.
I REMEMBER SO MANY THANKSGIVING DINNERS WITH GRANDPARENTS AND PARENTS. WE ALWAYS PRAYED AND THANKED GOD FOR HIS ABUNDANT BLESSINGS.
HOW MANY ARE THANKFUL TODAY? SO MANY FEEL ENTITLED, NOT THANKFUL.
FOCUS TODAY ON THE FREEDOM GOD HAS GIVEN US, NOT ONLY IN AMERICA, BUT FREEDOM FROM SIN AND FROM SEPARATION FROM GOD BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS.
THERE IS A CHORUS THAT SPEAKS TO THIS. IT GOES: “GIVE THANKS WITH A GRATEFUL HEART; GIVE THANKS TO THE HOLY ONE; GIVE THANKS BECAUSE HE’S GIVEN JESUS CHRIST HIS SON. AND NOW LET THE WEAK SAY I AM STRONG; LET THE POOR SAY I AM RICH BECAUSE OF WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE FOR US. GIVE THANKS.”
I HOPE THAT EXPRESSES THE DESIRE OF YOUR HEART THIS THANKSGIVING DAY. ENJOY THE TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND MAYBE WATCHING A FOOTBALL GAME. IT IS OUR SPECIAL AMERICAN HOLIDAY. GIVE THANKS TO GOD AND TO YOUR PARENTS, GRANDPARENTS AND SIBLINGS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
