In many parts of the world today is a very special day. This day has one purpose for hundreds of millions of people… BE THANKFUL! Gratitude will be expressed today in cards, songs, wonderful meals, smiles, hugs, and so much more. But let’s also be honest… underneath all the wonderful thanksgiving is a profound pile of pain in our world, a great sense of loss, despair and near hopelessness. How is that seen in your life, your family, your city this Thanksgiving Day 2023?
