Happy Thanksgiving

I am thankful beyond belief. Yesterday afternoon I got a text from my daughter Asherel, "I am ok, the car is ok...but two cars in front of me crashed and I hit them. Everyone is ok."

I had almost driven her into school that day. I had had a bad dream about her getting in a car accident. All morning I felt restless with worry. She came home from school safely, but had to go back out for a tutoring session. The tutor had canceled, and the half hour drive was for naught. And then she got in the accident driving back from the session that never happened.

When she came home, all I wanted to do was hug her. Not many 16 year olds will tolerate too much of that, but she graciously allowed me a few moments.
There are many provisions of God that we don't notice. He is continually providing, protecting, guiding. It takes a bit of a shake up sometimes to realize how often we are blessed and we forget to say "Thank you." Every breath we take is a blessing, deserving of our gratitude to our Creator.

Happy Thanksgiving beloved friends and family. What a joy to have all of you in my life. Go hug your kid now.

Persevere in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving; praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound, to the end that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak. Walk in wisdom towards those without, redeeming opportunities. Let your word be always with grace, seasoned with salt, so as to know how ye ought to answer each one. (Colossians 4:2-6 DARBY)
