A Month of Thanksgiving

So once in every year we throng
Upon a day apart,
To praise the Lord with feast and song
In thankfulness of heart.

—Arthur Guiterman, The First Thanksgiving

We had such a wonderful time gathered with our family today. A couple of years ago, all of us could not be together when my sister-in-love was in the hospital because her water broke at 24 weeks. Praise God that this year we could all be together, happy and healthy.

I am so thankful for memories of past Thanksgivings with family who are gone to heaven now. How I wish I could visit with them now and have my children know them.

Holidays are very hard for single mothers, with the memories of the past and painful reality that you sit alone amongst the couples. Please remember them this holiday season.

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. ~Psalms 19:14
