禱告火雞

禱告火雞
聖經閱讀：詩篇136:1-9 現代中譯本|合和本
2016年11月23日(三)

　在美國的感恩節這一天，很多家庭會在晚餐時準備火雞餐，所以快到感恩節的時候，有一些人會製作一些火雞造型的手工藝品。
也許你可以製作一隻「禱告火雞」來幫助你和家人記得感謝上帝為你們所成就的一切。請將你的手平放在一張紙上，用筆沿著手指外緣劃一圈，然後將拇指的輪廓畫成火雞的臉，並將其它四支手指塗上像火雞羽毛的顏色，然後在每一支手指寫上你要感謝的事。也許你可以寫上「救恩」、「家庭」、「朋友」、「食物」或其他要感謝上帝的事，最後將火雞吊在你可以天天看見的地方。
今天引自詩篇的經文列出許多我們要感恩的理由，每一個經節都提醒我們，上帝愛我們、祂是信實的。上帝已經為我們成就了這麼多奇妙的事，今天就對祂獻上感謝吧！ —GT

「要感謝上主，因他至善；他的慈愛永遠長存。」 詩篇136:1

禱告：天父，感謝祢賜給我一切的恩典。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

(尤榮輝譯)

Prayer Turkey
Bible Reading: Psalm 136:1-9
Wednesday, November 23, 2016

On Thanksgiving Day in America, many families prepare a turkey for their dinner. So around Thanksgiving time, some people make craft projects that look like turkeys.
Maybe you can make a “prayer turkey” to help you and your family remember to thank God for all He has done for you. Place your hand on a piece of paper and draw around it. Draw a turkey face on your thumb outline and color the four fingers to look like turkey feathers. Then write above each finger things that you are thankful for. Maybe you can write salvation, family, friends, food or other things that you want to thank God for. Then hang your turkey some place where you will see it every day.
Our Bible verses from Psalms today list many reasons that we can be thankful. Each verse reminds us that God loves us and is faithful. God has done so many wonderful things for us. Give thanks to Him today! —GT

“Praise the Lord because he is good. His faithful love will last forever.” Psalm 136:1
