Thanksgiving is a season of remembrance based upon the noble sacrifice of those who fought with General George Washington. It was not easy nor did creature comforts exist that we will all enjoy tomorrow.
Although the pilgrims created this day (~1670s), it was General Washington during the bitter winter encampment at Valley Forge where his army suffered cold, hunger, and disease. Men marched with bleeding feet upon frozen ground. In that season of trial, General Washington called for a DAY OF THANKSGIVING and prayer, reminding his soldiers that no adversity could extinguish the cause of freedom.
The sentiment of every living American patriot still believes in the cause of freedom Washington inspired then…We will continue to live it now because our brave Soldiers continue to protect and defend our nation against foreign and domestic dark forces.
Pray for those who serve and sacrifice, especially those who have given the last true measure of devotion.
God Bless America!!!
