Happy Thanksgiving!
What a gorgeous day here at the Lake! It is warm and beautiful sunshine! We had a traditional holiday breakfast for the Oakley's with homemade pecan rolls and bacon! It was delicious and the coffee was great too! :o) We will have a great family day with a big lunch and probably lots of conversation and games.
Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: 1 Chronicles 16:34 - On this American holiday, put Christ in it-and put Him first! Give thanks-lead your family in verbally thanking God together.
"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever." 1 Chronicles 16:34
Our family has a tradition on Thanksgiving that we go around the table before saying grace and tell one thing that we are thankful for in the current year. The kids are included and I am always humbled by what they say. "I am thankful for: my freedom to worship God; the Mommy that God gave me; health and strength in my family; God's answers to our prayers;" and one of my favorites, "the opportunity to tell others about Jesus and to share His love!"
What are you thankful for today?
I am so very thankful for the opportunity to share with each of you in the great ministry of GEMS! I love y'all!
