thanksgiving traditions

I Thessalonians 5:18

Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

With the holidays around the corner, I thought it would be fun to share some family traditions that you do in your home, during the holidays.

One of the Thanksgiving traditions that we adopted from my husband’s family is on the day of Thanksgiving, we go around the table and say what you are thankful for. That may seem simple to some, but the first time I had Thanksgiving with their family I thought it was the most amazing thing.

This actually turns into a real emotional time some years, contingent on how the year has gone. It’s a beautiful thing because the bible teaches us to be thankful in ALL things. Everyone participates with a sincere heart and it great to see what the Lord has done in someone’s life over the year.

What is one family tradition you and your family do?
