As we celebrate Thanksgiving this year and as we conclude the Year of Faith, I encourage us all to thank God for his wonderful gifts in our lives. And in so doing, to peel back the veil and realize that material gifts pale in comparison to God’s love, a love that guarantees us the gift of eternal life. Thank God for our faith, a gift that allows us, like the thankful man cured of leprosy, to enter more deeply into our relationship with Christ, a relationship of thanksgiving that is meant to last an eternity.
