"Rest & be Thankful Pass: A Reminder to Count Our Blessings" In the midst of life's hustle and bustle, we often forget to pause and reflect on all that we have to be thankful for. The Rest & be Thankful Pass serves as a gentle nudge, urging us to take a moment and appreciate the abundance in our lives. There's always something to be thankful for, even in the face of adversity. Just like HolySisters who found solace in their faith during challenging times, we too can find strength in gratitude. History teaches us valuable lessons about gratitude. Take, for instance, the death of Charles II of Spain - a reminder that life is fleeting and should never be taken for granted. Similarly, Prince Charles bidding farewell to Flora MacDonald reminds us of the importance of cherishing meaningful connections. Even centuries ago, expressions of thankfulness were captured through art. From "A Protestant Family during Dinner" enjoying a meal together with grateful hearts to St Macarius lending aid to plague victims out of compassion and empathy – these acts remind us that gratitude transcends time. Religious texts also emphasize thankfulness as seen in Genesis 42:25-28 when Joseph generously provided his brothers with food without expecting anything in return. This selfless act highlights how giving thanks can create ripples of kindness. Donations Thankfully Received painting from 1862 showcases how gratitude can inspire generosity among individuals - reminding us that being appreciative not only benefits ourselves but also those around us. Lastly, Noah's offering after surviving the Flood symbolizes an expression of profound appreciation towards divine protection and new beginnings – teaching us that even amidst chaos or challenges; there is always room for gratitude. So let's embrace this timeless virtue by taking a moment each day to acknowledge our blessings - big or small - just like travelers passing through Rest & be Thankful Pass are reminded to do so along their journey.
