You are correct A-Team.
Even devils believe in angels!
And here is another New Testament verse (There are plenty more also) for good measure and balance.
John 20:12 "And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain."
Please remember that I am not religious! The Pharisees were as "religious" as they come. They had over 600 laws that they tried to keep. Religious they were, and they conspired to crucify The Lord Jesus Christ.
Mat 12:14 "Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him."
Unfortunately, it is "Religion", "Cultures" and "Traditions of men" that condemn folks to an everlasting condemnation.
The reason that all cultures, all humans if you will, are thankful is due to the fact that God has written His law on the hearts of men. Of course, that is why remote tribes have punishment for murder and they have never seen a Bible.
Romans 2:14 " For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:"
Romans 2:15 "Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;"

BP, thanks so much for this post. Your statement:
"Think once and while, its not all about us its about all of us."
says it all! Our hearts are filled with gratitude this Thanksgiving! Thanks for sharing.
I have to share our angel story. Last year we were on a run and the weather had turned really cold in the area. Around 2:00 AM we stopped at a WalMart to pick up some bottled water and we left our jackets and our cell phones in the truck while we ran in for a quick break. We purchased our items and rushed back out to the truck to discover we had locked our keys in the truck and everything was locked. At that time neither of us carried a spare key (now we both carry one). We were freezing and we couldn't get in the truck. It was a holiday so nothing was open and we were in the middle of nowhere in a tiny town. A locksmith would have been 50 to 75 miles away. I sat on the bumper and began to cry and pray. I was so cold! Frank headed over to a truck stop to see if they had any ideas. When he walked in and asked the sales clerk there was a fellow standing in line to purchase gas for his SUV. He turned to his wife and said, "Go get my tools out of the car." This guy was retired military and just "happened" to be there at that moment. He had our truck door opened within 5 minutes. I recognize angels all around us and this was one of those!! Amazing!

Neat story Broom. I heard the following story on a Christian radio station yesterday while traveling to the inlaws for Thanksgiving. I nearly had to pull off the road. I searched the internet and found the audio clip on Godtube.com. Here is a link to it. Make sure you have kleenexes ready.
