Stuffed

As you can see, I get the clean plate award.  Wow, what a great meal my dear wife put together, with some veggy help from DIL#2  and dessert assistance from Mom-Mom-Mom.  No matter what the menu, Stuffed Turkey or Gravy over rice, Thanksgiving is about sharing time with family and friends as well as recognizing the hand of God in our lives. 

  Rejoice evermore.
  Pray without ceasing.
  In every thing give thanks:
  for this is the will of God in Christ
  Jesus concerning you.
  (1Thess. 5:16-18)


Rejoicing and being thankful is easy when our plates are full of wonderfully delicious things, yet there are many times that we get a spoon full of unpleasantness.  But the command is unchanged, "In ALL things give thanks".  In the midst of all different types of circumstances we must learn to trust in His divine wisdom, mercy and care. 

I hope you all had as wonderful a Thanksgiving Day as we did.
