There are many ingredients in thanks giving: suitable and seasonable obedience to Answer the Will of God in his mercies, is doubtless the crown of all. Look then under the enjoyment of blessings, in general, to close walking with God in the duties of the Covenant, and in particular, to the especial work of this your generation, and you are in the way to be thankful.
