On Thanksgiving

Let us give thanks to God continually. For, it is outrageous that when we enjoy His
benefaction to us in deed every single day, we do not acknowledge the favor with so
much as a word; and this, when the acknowledgment confers great benefit on us.
He does not need anything of ours, but we stand in need of all things from Him.



                — St. John Chrysostom, Homily 25, Homilies on the Gospel of St. Matthew
