Preparing our hearts to give thanks

One week from today is Thanksgiving Day. As we prepare for a day of thanks with family and friends you will be given a time to share a testimony of God's faithfulness during the past 12 months!  It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord!  

Here is a short primer to prepare our hearts to be thankful....




If someone who was starving approached you on the street and asked you to share your food, would you oblige?
In a new social experiment conducted by OCK TV, two men — ET and Dennis — set out to see if strangers in NYC will do just that. And guess what? They fail at all three attempts. 
Not one person will budge. 

Moments later, ET and another person on the team purchase an entire pizza pie and give it to a homeless man, who — by the way — looks happier than any of the other individuals you meet before him.
Shortly after that, Dennis disguises himself as a homeless person and sits next to the man with the pizza. He tells him he’s hungry and asks if he has an extra slice. Without hesitation, the homeless man happily shares his meal.
And what happens next brought tears to my eyes.

Watch the video below. 
It may change the way you think — and the way you treat other people. At the end of the day, we’re all people — homeless or not.
