November 14: Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son. Col. 1:12-13

What have we to be thankful for? and how deep does the spirit of thankfulness penetrate our hearts?... The above language of the Apostle calls forcibly to mind our wonderful favors over and above all those that call for general rejoicing and thanksgiving… we are specially favored, first, in that we have been delivered from the power of darkness; secondly, in that we have been translated into the kingdom of God's dear Son; and thirdly, in that we have been made meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light.
