Christian Thanksgiving

by Dennis King

Overview

What are you thinking of for this upcoming Thanksgiving Day? I've known in years past, the day before and Thanksgiving morning were a time of stress for the hostess of the family get-together. Stress such as, how's the turkey in the oven doing? Is it browning or is it getting over cooked? Will Ellen bring the cranberry jelly or forget it like Rose did at Easter? Say, sister Nancy, watch out and don't sprinkle too much paprika on the deviled eggs. You know Uncle Spencer is allergic to that. Jeanie, how is the brown gravy doing? Don't let it get too watery. Wanda, would you please stick a toothpick into the corn bread to check if they are done?
Yes, Thanksgiving can often appear to be more hectic than quiet or serene. Has Thanksgiving lost its original meaning? I mean, how can normal conversations compete with the supposed entertainment value of cellphones and the blaring television? The true meaning of Thanksgiving should focus upon relationships. Once the meal is tabled, good conversations between relatives and friends should abound. But let's not forget the Thanksgiving bonds Christians share with God the Father.

About the Author

Hello friends, if you are looking to download my free or low-cost selections of books and essays, you've reached the right place. All you have to do is scroll down a couple of pages to peruse those offerings.
What is your favorite reading genre? If you like adventures or stories with military intrigue, try “Betrayed by Soldiers” and follow that up with “Deep Cover Shakedown.” If you like poetry, you can read 20,000 words of original, rhythmical composition in “Romantic Poetry”? By poking around in the nooks and crannies of the offerings listed you will find illustrated children's stories, Sci-Fi, and many short essays that have proved useful in informal Bible Studies or self-help for the troubled souls suffering from worry or anxieties.
For those of you that wish to know a little about me, after growing up in the small town of Mukwonago, Wisconsin, I served for twenty years in the military. During that time, I served two volunteer tours in classified combat situations and flew more than 100 combat missions manning a .50 machine gun from the side-door of a Marine helicopter at the height of the war. After being promoted to Staff Sergeant (E-6), I requested Officer Candidate School. As a Signal Officer, I served in Field Artillery, Signal Battalions, and Recruiting Command. My last assignment was at the Pentagon with the Army Research & Development Agency.
For the avid card players out there, I invented and offer TOSS Playing Cards, comprised of an eight-suited deck that plays every card game you know with more excitement and challenges. The deck can be reviewed at Toss.iWARP.com.
Retired, I now serve as a Red Cross Disaster Services team member and Spiritual Care. Please, feel free to email any comments, favorable or not. Every author, like to hear from the fans or critics. You can reach me directly at [e-mail].
