November 25, 2014 - Receiving Blessings and Gifts - In A Very Different Pastor's Study

November 25, 2014

In this time when so many of us make a point of giving thanks, it might be an idea to share some thoughts concerning a major part of giving thanks, that being the act of receiving something for which we are giving thanks.

Most of us can offer examples in which receiving was done and, for that matter, when it actually was not done. I offer a couple that I've seen.

The point is something that I offer as a counterpoint to a statement often made by plate-passing preachers. They might claim that their god loves a happy giver, but my deities really get excited about a happy receiver!
