A book that we read each Thanksgiving says that when the Pilgrims “caught a glimpse of their destination, the new land where God would be worshipped freely and—in time—where freedom would flourish,” they “shout[ed] for joy and [fell] to their knees to pray, [and] they celebrated by reading Psalm 100.”
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!Know that the Lord, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.
I wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving as you feast and rejoice. See also my family blog for another holiday post.
