Leviticus 7:12-15 – 12 “‘If they offer it as an expression of thankfulness, then along with this thank offering they are to offer thick loaves made without yeast and with olive oil mixed in, thin loaves made without yeast and brushed with oil, and thick loaves of the finest flour well-kneaded and with oil mixed in. 13 Along with their fellowship offering of thanksgiving they are to present an offering with thick loaves of bread made with yeast. 14 They are to bring one of each kind as an offering, a contribution to the LORD; it belongs to the priest who splashes the blood of the fellowship offering against the altar. 15 The meat of their fellowship offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the day it is offered; they must leave none of it till morning.
The Jews were encouraged in one of their types of sacrifices to be thankful.
God gave us a gift to be able to reflect on how you would feel if you were in somebody else’s shoes. There is only one true God. However can put ourselves in the place of doing something for someone and then seeing how grateful they are. No one appreciates someone who is self centered or ungrateful.
We need always to reflect on our Lord during Thanksgiving. We all have so much to be thankful for. Enjoy your families. Don’t waste an opportunity to try and plant seeds where the door is open. In America we get caught up in the sale or success that follows, but our Lord just wants us to love and obey Him. If you love Him feed His sheep. John 21:15-17
