Happy Thanksgiving Day to you!
Feeling tremendously grateful this morning. No matter our circumstances, we all have so much to be thankful for today!
I am thankful that even if we are spending today working at our jobs, or our family members are far away, or friends are celebrating and we aren’t with them, we all are blessed in some ways and we can, and do, share this day of thanksgiving in our hearts.
Our family has experienced many kinds of trials in the past few years and I shared the following with them via text message this morning.
While this life on earth is not perfect and there are those we have loved who will be missing from our tables today, I am thankful we have this beautiful hope in our AWESOME GOD.
“The Lord redeems the lives of his servants, and none of those who take refuge and trust in Him shall be condemned or held guilty.”
Ps 34:22 AMP
It is because of this hope my heart is FULL of JOY!
My prayer today is that each person who follows me here, on my social media pages and those who may be seeing me for the first time, share this same joy and hope with me. If you want to know how, let me say it simply. We place our trust in the One True and Living God, Jehovah, through His Son, Jesus, the Christ. His gift of life is the greatest treasure of all.
Have a HAPPY & JOYFUL THANKSGIVING!
