It is believed that a prayer said with a thankful heart is more powerful than a prayer said with a demanding heart. Without being thankful for the constant supply of nutritional food, forgiving love from your near and dear ones, good looking clothes and a sturdy roof over your head, and all the positives and the negatives in your life; it is difficult to receive the blessings that have already been given to you. That's where Thanksgiving Day comes in! On this day, that is celebrated every year in the month of November, and October in some countries; the whole family comes together to express thankfulness for whatever they have received, through prayer. It is also a time to spend a day with loved ones, enjoy the delicious turkey and other hearty meals, and watch parades and football games together. Before you do that, go through these thanksgiving thoughts to hype up the excitement, while you wait for the day to arrive.
