Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day, a tradition we celebrate here in America . I decided to look up
the meaning of the word "thanksgiving" from the Noah Webster 1828 Dictionary of the English
Language.
Noah Webster used the Bible as the foundation for his definitions. Webster considered
"education useless without the Bible." As a result, he utilized God's written word as a key to
the meaning of words.
While you celebrate this day, remember to thanksgiving - a giving of thanks - to our Creator,
God Almighty, for His Goodness and His Blessing on our lives!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
