I am so thankful this year. God has blessed me and my family beyond measure. We have had quality time with each other, opened doors to friends and family, entered homes of friends and family, and just truly, been blessed.
Ups and downs are a part of our lives, yet God is steadfast, strong, and unchanging. And that is why I praise Him. That is what makes me want to jump up and shout "Praise God from whom ALL blessings flow!!"
I want to wish you and your families a wonderful Thanksgiving. May your time be blessed, may Uncle Harry minimize the embarrassing moments, and may God get all of the glory.
I'm taking the week off of blogging to focus on my family and home and my God. Blessings, dear friends.
Psalm 100- the Message (because I love that first verse)
A Thanksgiving Psalm
On your feet now—applaud God! Bring a gift of laughter,
sing yourselves into his presence.
Know this: God is God, and God, God.
He made us; we didn't make him. We're his people, his well-tended sheep. Enter with the password: "Thank you!"
Make yourselves at home, talking praise.
Thank him. Worship him. For God is sheer beauty, all-generous in love, loyal always and ever.

I need a kick in the pants sometimes to remind me to slow down and actually remember what is truly important. Thanks friend! :O)
You're right...its always rushed and we tend to forget the TRUE importance of the holiday season...this year my family(since its our first year without my grandmother) really took the time to stop, and give thanks!
good post :)
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you have a perfectly lovely week!
Yes, on my feet applauding God! He truly deserves the praise.
