Being thankful this week, too

Craig Williams reflects on Col. 3:15, the culture of dissatisfaction, and the benefits of thankfulness:

I'm convinced that thanksgiving opens us up to options - options that we don't see or hear when we are dissatisfied with what life is giving us. Thanksgiving loosens the claim of sin on our lives, and causes us to be open to the gifts of God in Jesus. Thanksgiving actually gives life to thanksgiving. Like begets like.

It's a message worth reading, even if the fourth Thursday in November has already passed.
