Thanksgiving was originally established to give thanks to the Almighty God for His benevolent care and providence to men, but it has become commercialized, overshadowing the essence of gratitude. In the rush of modern life and moral decline, the giving of thanks has become a rare thing. Many fail to thank God for His benefits throughout the year, not even for the ability to acquire material goods, focusing instead on personal gain. God gives benefits to all humanity, as Jesus states that He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust, showing kindness even to the unthankful and evil. We are called to thank Him daily for all His blessings, not just the pleasant things, but for His benefits, mercy, and graciousness. The Psalmist urges men to give thanks to the LORD for His goodness and wonderful works, for He satisfies the longing soul and fills the hungry with goodness. Each of us, in training for a position in the Kingdom of God, should be extremely thankful to Him for His benefits, testing, and training, responding in humbleness of mind and thankfulness of heart. Despite enjoying immense benefits and prosperity, many remain complainers, unthankful for what God has bestowed so freely, allowing selfishness and pride to reign. We must not fall into this end-time mindset of ingratitude but instead be humble, respect God, and thank Him for His daily providence. Gratitude, as exemplified by David in the Psalms, should be a recurring theme in our lives, showing love for Him through daily thanks. We must never slack off in giving Him thanks, especially as the world spirals down morally and ethically, for God has given us amazing benefits, including our calling to His truth and the opportunity to become His children. As the Psalmist declares, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever.
