Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,
having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith,
just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. 
Colossians 2:6-7 NASB

Years ago, I taught writing to adult GED students.  Every Wednesday, we would do an exercise together as a class to practice writing a five-paragraph essay. As the end of November approached, I chose the topic of Thanksgiving.  I thought that in this age of “entitlement” it might be a double “win” for the students to count their blessings and practice their writing.
