In the last half an hour over 30 people in the United States have tried to kill themselves. By the time you get ready to go to sleep tonight that number will have risen to well pass 700. Every 60 seconds someone in the United States of America decides life isn’t worth living.

This evening, in a land blessed in so many different ways, freedom not being one of the lesser blessings, almost 30 million people tonight will take sleeping pills.

A tremendous number of people are hyped up and/or feel let down.

Is there a solution? Well, there is the beginning of a solution and it is called thanksgiving.

It starts out by appreciating all the blessings we have that are priceless but cost us nothing. Indeed, suppose it was 50 cents a night to be able to look up and see the stars.

Or suppose a sunrise or a sunset were a $1; or a bargain of $1.50 for both.
OR?...

A French philosopher by the name of Monteigne asked the following question, “Shall it ever be a time when the things that matter most are the victim of the things that matter least?”

Thoreau put it well when he said that man should be judged by the portion of things he learns to do without.

“Serve the Lord with gladness:
come before His presence with singing.
Know ye that the Lord He is God:
It is He that hat made us, and not we ourselves;
we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise;
be thankful unto Him, and bless His name.
For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting;
and his truth endures to all generations.” Psalm 100
