"St. Francis de Sales says that gratitude is the beginning of humility because it recognizes that all we have and are gifts from a loving and generous God. Today the people of the United States celebrate Thanksgiving from sea to shining sea. It is a day we celebrate with those closest to us, family and friends. It is an opportunity for each one of us to step back and reflect on the blessings we know are from God, and, if given the chance, share them with those who are important in our lives."
In a recent commentary, Father Jack Loughran,
OSFS, reflected on the celebration of Thanksgiving and offered a prayer of thanksgiving is based on the writings of St. Francis de Sales.
