Thanksgiving.

meaning: an act of giving thanks; an expression of gratitude, especially to God
(credits to thefreedictionary.com)

#1 we should be thankful to God, for the things He gave us, and the opportunities He gave us. We may face problems and difficulties in our lives, but we must treat them as stepping stones and experiences when we overcome them. :)

#2 we should be thankful for the people around us, especially to our leaders. Our leaders have a higher spiritual level and spirit of discerning than us, therefore we must be thankful to them as they give us advices. :)

#3 we should also be thankful to our brothers and sisters. Without them, our lives may be different and transformed. They are the reasons why we are who we are today. :)

SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
GO TELL SOMEONE THAT YOU'RE VERY THANKFUL FOR THEIR EXISTENCE. :D

Psalms 69:30
I will praise the name of God with a song and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.

As we give thanks and praise the Lord, others will benefit and be encouraged:

(1) “The humble shall hear of it and be glad” (Ps. 34:2). Others who have been in similar circumstances will take comfort if we magnify the LORD and exalt His name together (34:3).

(2) Weak hearts will be strengthened, and downcast saints will be revived as they listen to our “songs of deliverance” (32:7). Their doubts and fears will be rebuked, as we teach and admonish “one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs” (Col. 3:16).

(3) They too will “sing of the ways of the LORD” (Ps. 138:5) when they hear us magnify His holy name. Praise should be so important to us. The angels do not pray, but they do not cease to praise both day and night; and the redeemed, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, are never weary of singing the new song, “Worthy is the Lamb” (Rev. 5:12). Therefore make a decision today to praise and give thanks no matter what happens in your life. “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thess. 5:18).
