happy thanksgiving!

Here are two Thanksgiving scriptures that we talked about in institute yesterday:

Psalms 68:19
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our Salvation.

Doctrine and Covenants 59:21
And in nothing doth man offend God, or against none is His wrath kindled, save those who confess not His hand in all things and obey not His commandments.

I love these scriptures. I love the wording in the first scripture, who daily loadeth us with benefits. It is so true. The second scripture I love because it stresses both giving thanks for our blessings and keeping the commandments, being obedient. The way we show our thanks and our love to our Heavenly Father is by keeping His commandments.

John 14:15
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
