Day 12- Happy Thanksgiving

"O praise the Lord, for it is a good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant and praises is becoming.
The Lord does build up Jerusalem, and gathers together the outcasts of Israel. He heals those that are broken in heart, and binds all their wounds.
O sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praises upon the harp unto our God: Who covers the heavens with clouds, and prepares rain for the earth; and makes the grass to grow upon the mountains, and herb for the use of men; who gives fodder unto the cattle, and feeds the young ravens that call upon Him.
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion. For He has strengthened the bars of thy gates, and has blessed thy children within thee. He makes peace in thy borders, and fills thee with the finest of wheat
."
Verses from Psalms 147

'O Most Merciful Father, who has blessed the labors of the husbandman in the returns of the fruits of the earth; We give Thee humble and hearty thanks for this Thy bounty; beseeching Thee to continue Thy loving-kindness to us, that our land may still yield her increase, to the Thy Glory and our comfort; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen'
Book of Common Prayer

A blessed and wonderful Thanksgiving to you all~!
