Give Thanks

Nov 25th 2008Faith & Life

I woke up this morning with this song on my mind:

“Give Thanks” on YouTube

In this week where we as a nation stop to give thanks, I am so thankful for God’s love, God’s patience, God’s grace, God’s word, and God’s gift, His Son. 

I am also thankful to those that love me in spite of my flaws, in spite of my distractions, in spite of my inappropriate priorities, and in spite of my inadequacies. 

I am thankful for family and friends that remind me of my purpose and get me focused on serving others and giving to those who may at any particular time need a blessing. 

And I’m thankful for each and every opportunity to interact with others.  I’m grateful that in every interaction I find a blessing of some sort and in some form.

As I prepare for Thanksgiving, I’ll spend lots of time in prayer and lots of time giving thanks to others.  Even though every day is a day of Thanksgiving, this week for me brings it all into focus.
