Thanksgiving

Today, let us thank the Lord not only for his daily provision for us, but, more importantly, for the eternal salvation he offers through his Son, Jesus. Let us pray that all may be led to accept it.

The following is from bruderhof.com:
Once when I was in Victoria, I saw a very large house. They told me it was a bank, and that the white men place their money there to be taken care of, and that by and by they got it back, with interest. We are Indians, and we have no such bank; but when we have plenty of money or blankets, we give them away to other chiefs and people, and by and by they return them, and our hearts feel good. Our way of giving is our bank.
Maquinna, Nootka chief, early 19th Century
