Class of 2024 -- Blog #4 -- GIVE THANKS

Well, it's hard to believe, but Thanksgiving break is only a few weeks away.  The semester is quickly passing, and it will be over before you know it. 


I LOVE THANKSGIVING!  I think too many times, we rush through this holiday, in order to get to Christmas.  That bothers me because I think too many of us forget to be thankful.  We simply take our blessings for granted, and I think that is sad.

Thanksgiving is about stopping (at least for a moment), and thanking God for the blessings that He gives to us.  We live in a country that is free.  We live in beautiful houses.  We have food in our pantry.  We have a car in the garage. We have parents and grandparents that take care of us.  Someone may be sacrificing to make sure we are getting a Christian education at Goodpasture.    Although, those things are "second nature" to most of us, those things are blessings.

So, just stop for a moment, and think of ONE (yes, only one!) thing for which you are thankful this year.  What is your biggest blessing?  Why is that so important to you?

Mine would be my family.  They are my life, and they are God's biggest blessing to me -- every day and in every way.


Answer in THREE (3) complete sentences for THREE (3) extra credit points.  This blog will close on Friday, 11/22 at midnight!

So, get ready for turkey, sweet potatoes, and pumpkin pie!  But don't forget to thank God for those blessings!  Write on!

  1. I’m thankful for all the fun opportunities that are happening/ happened this month! I was in the 7th/8th grade play, I’m going to Charleston for a convention, I’m seeing Cats and Singing in the Rain, and I’m excited for Thanksgiving and Black Friday! The majority of these things are already payed for and I’m so blessed to be doing all of them.

  7. I am thankful that I am a Christian and I get a lot of opportunities that most people don’t have. For example, I go to a private Christian school that cost a lot for me to go here, so I try to make the most of it.

  9. I am thankful for the food I get to eat, because some people don’t get to eat food or it is very dirty. I am thankful for the family that I have, because some people don’t have a connected family or not close.
