Although it is a healthy DAILY practice, Thanksgiving is a heightened time for Americans to express our gratitude out to those we love.

Here is a wonderful blessing to share around your Thanksgiving table this year:  Make a blessing bowl!

If you have little ones, actually making the bowl will be a crafty and fun activity.  You can keep it simple by using play dough, or even bake your own homemade play dough into a little pinch pot blessing bowl! 

Or, just use a cereal bowl.  It doesn’t have to be extra fancy. It’s not what’s on the outside that matters, it is what is on the inside that counts here!

Have the entire family and house guests partake by writing down things that you are thankful for on little bits of paper and put them in the bowl.   At Thanksgiving dinner, pass the bowl around and read them out loud.

Blessed and grateful, what a Grace filled way to gather on this holiday.  God bless and happy feasting as you warmly enjoy those you love and adore.
