Thanksgiving in the words of 'Abdu'l-Baha
'Abdu'l-Baha is a man that I really look up to, the type of man that has made so much effort in helping others that you tell your children stories about his life. There are many things I am grateful for particularly my family but this quote by 'Abdu'l-Baha sums everything up perfectly.
"Physically and spiritually we are submerged in the sea of God's favor. He has provided our foods, drink and other requirements; His favors encompass us from all directions. The sustenances provided for man are blessings. Sight, hearing and all his faculties are wonderful gifts. These blessings are innumerable; no matter how many are mentioned, they are still endless. Spiritual blessings are likewise endless—spirit, consciousness, thought, memory, perception, ideation and other endowments. By these He has guided us, and we enter His Kingdom. He has opened the doors of all good before our faces. He has vouchsafed eternal glory. He has summoned us to the Kingdom of heaven. He has enriched us by the bestowals of God. Every day he has proclaimed new glad tidings. Every hour fresh bounties descend."
Have a great Thanksgiving with your families!
