Thanks Living, Not Just Thanks Giving! Day 4

11/18/2017

Encourage “Thanks Living” at dinner or bedtime!
Use a question each night for discussion starters at meal time or bedtime.

Who in your life are you thankful for? Why?
What memory brings you joy? Can you see God’s goodness in it?
How have you seen God answer a prayer?
What Bible verse can you learn to express gratitude to God? (Psalm 100:4-5, Psalm 136:1, Psalm 111:2-3)

We all enjoy (especially children) hearing a parent’s excitement in counting God’s blessings and expressing thankfulness to others. Maybe it will become a habit called “Thanks Living”!
