Thanksgiving Sermon
BY Rev. Pagan Cossey
Csu:--"Prsiss Ged, yrom uIbom I'LL Blessings To,D."

we appreciate all these, the more
shall we feel that through this life
and through eternity we must still
be praising Him, and that the an
gels, whatever their rank or order,
may well fall before him and cry
forevermore, Holy, holy. trice
holy is the Lord. >
Our annual Thanksgiving Day
began in spirit of genuine praise
to God for mercies received. We
have come to observe it in a far
different way, yet there still ling
ers about it the spirit of thanks
giving and indebtedness to God.
We need to make the expression
of these feelings more pronounced
and open, and thus acknowledge
God before men as the source of
all our blessings.
The Christian should indeed
praise God at all times. But tas sc
special times should also be used.
Praise IS helpful to US in teach
ing US that we are dependent up
on God. 20 praise God for His
goodness IS to acknowledge we
are the recipients of His bounty.
The Newark journal., 1905-12-08

We are SO strangely constructed
that we need to give expression to
our thanks in order to cultivate a
thankful disposition II we
withhold expression we are apt to
cease to recognize the obligation
that begets thaRkfulness A child
trained to be careless about graf :
tude to parents will grow up with
a disposition that negIects to re.
cognize the facts of life.
So Christians who withhold
praise begin to neglect the grace
OF God. We need to cultivate the
grace of thanksgiving in order to
keep ourselves right.
Praise is helpful ia influencing
o5hers to recognize God : good
ness. God is commended to 9TH
ers by the praise OF His children.
Open Acknowledgement of our in
debtedness to God is always Il
fruitful means OF leading others to
an appreciation OF the God whom
we serve.
Hearty praise goes even furth
err, because it shows the gladness
that comes to the Christian in the
service Of God. Christians who
never offer praise to God do not
seem to others 10 have much that
distinguishes them from those who
are not supposed to receive the
same favors. So we commend our
God to others when we openly and
sincerely praise Him.
Praise IS pleasing to God. God
has revealed himself to us As one
who delights IN the praise of His
people. Their praise IS to Him
sacrifice. fer It shows to Him the
hearts of His loyal servants. SO
many receive lis gracious bounty
and recognize not the girer, but
those who do so recognize God as
their beaelactor, aud openly nc
knowledge it. We ought, then, to
praise God continuity, on special
and regular occasions, for our own
sake, for the SAKE OF others and Tor
Gods own glory and honor.
Praise can be rendered in pri-
Yate and in public. Ne must praise
in secret If we are to praise in pub
lie. Indeed, we ought always to
praise God IN every prayer, in our
private derotio4s. BuJ it is not
enough to praise in private; we
must do this in public as well. We
eau praise God by attending and
participating in these public eXer-
cises which are held for this pur
pose.

cupies very prominent place in
scriptural worship. Inspired
writers exhaust the vocabulary of
appeal and employ all conceivable
arguments in urging Us TO praise
the Lord. Psalms 96, 107 and los
are rich specimens, which will
abundantly repay the thoughtful
What is praisel 1t is not easy
to define the term in simpler or
more familiar words. Common
dalton, admiration, alteration,
homage, and the like help but lit
tie, each conveying only partial
conception, or denoting only Il
single element Of the entire com
pick thought. We employ the
term, Of course. in a lower and
weaker sense than is here intend
ed, as when we praise men for
their virtues, their valor, their
gifts, their achievements. But
when we speak of praising the
Lord our ideas take a wider and
loftier range. The emotions are
conceived OF as moved by larger
and nobler considerations. We
cannot praise men for precisely
the same reasons for which we
praise the Lord, nor after the
same manner. Praise implies
reverence, In offering praise, the
soul bows before tic greatness, tile
ma esty, the glory of God. Praise
also implies approval. When we
praise the Lord, we set our seals
40 this, that He is true, that He
is good, that He IS holy; that His
ways are right and worthy. We
accept, indorse, and applaud His
words and works.
Then, toe, praise implies joy or
gladness. In praise there Is no
constrained, cringing, seryile, all.
ject, reverence or approval. There
is highest pleasure in Offering
praise. The soul is delighted in
ascribing praises to God. We may
say, then, that praise is joyful and
approving reverence; or, that it
il that God ward up lifting of the
soul when consciously delighted
to contemplate His PROJECTIONS;
submit to His appointments and
obey His commandments. There
may or may not be audible eX-
pressions. There may be no ear
but Gods to hearken, or the
hearts high emotions may be too
great for the poor words at our
cammand.
But, both for perfecting and es-
tablishing our own attitude in
praises TO God and for good in
fluence upon those who may hear
US. Think little of the reasona-
bieuess of praise. Reflect, upon
the attributes Of God as revealed
through His works, His power,
wisdom and goodness; His faith
fitness, His love, HIS holiness.
Mediate especially upon the Won
aerful manifestations of His grace
in the gift Of His son, Christ Je-
sus, our Lord, That whatsoever
belieyeth in him should not perish,
but have eternal life. >
With whom shall we compare
the absolute, self-existent, eternal,
0mnipotent God, the God whe
created and up holdeth all things:
the God of the Patriarchs, the
God of all human history The
God of our salvation, the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus. How
shall we worthily speak the prais
es due His great and holy name!
And, in the personal experien
ees of every one of us, there may
he found so many occasions fol
and incentives to praise. Daily

uncomfortable for pedestrians. They
shut out the light, and otherwise help
to destroy the value of 100 miles Of
