Bible Question: What should be the focus of Christians on Thanksgiving? |
Bible Answer: It would be good, I think, if we would focus on the giver (Genesis 15:1; Hebrews 11:6). It is he who is the source of all things (James 1:17; Psalm 50:10). He gives us all things richly to enjoy (1 Timothy 6:17). We might also focus on the unspeakable gift that he gave (John 3:16; 2 Corinthians 9:15). We might ask ourselves what we might give him in return, and consider how the psalmist answered that question: “I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord” (Psalm 116). We might read from passages such as Genesis 1 and Psalm 104 and appreciate how he has provided for us. We should rejoice before the Lord for what he has given us (as in Deuteronomy 16). But we should also rejoice in the Lord himself (as in Philippians 4). We should rejoice to have him as our creator, as our sustainer and provider, and as our Savior. And we should rejoice that he has given us his word to teach us these things. |
