Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-9
I feel that this day of thanksgiving gets lost in the holiday season. I feel that it is just an excuse to eat to much and to prepare for the craziness that Christmas has become. But today I think we need to thank our Lord and Savior for all that we have. You may feel that you have little but you need to thanks God for that. After all God sent his Son to earth to be the ultimate sacrifice so that we we who where separated from God in our sin could be with him again. As Paul says in Philippians we need to give God our thanks in everything. So as you sit down today and eat we need to be thankful for all that we have, and to remember that God gave it all to us.
So in that I want to say that I am thankful for My husband, his job, my wonderful little boys, my parents for teaching me how to live and for showing the love of God to us. For my younger brother for all his wisdom and for all the wonderful people God has put in my way.
