Why Thanksgiving Isn't Just for November

Listen Later

Thanksgiving brings the excitement of fellowship with family, enjoying our favorite holiday foods and taking a break from work to rest. But this time of year can also be stressful due to travel, family dynamics and financial strains. In this episode, Seth and Alicia Williams share ideas for maintaining a heart centered on gratitude so we can focus on the true meaning of the season rather than getting caught up in the noise around us.

QUOTES TO REMEMBER

  • “Make an intentional effort to move away from the noise and reflect on what this season is really about. Giving thanks is an essential part of our walk with the Lord.” — Seth Williams
  • ”We’ve had death, we’ve had pain, we’ve had challenges—but I look at what He has done, and my heart shifts.” — Seth Williams
  • “Ask the Lord to give you eyes to see what He’s really doing behind the scenes. There will be much to be thankful for.” — Alicia Williams
  • “The Lord includes everyone at the table, and we should, too.” — Alicia Williams
