It’s that time of the year again — time to be thankful!
I wish all of you a safe and blessed Thanksgiving!
This year we remain separated from our loved ones and her friends. Many of our parents and older relatives and friends are spending this day alone and have been living in what seems like perpetual solitary confinement.
I hope this day finds you all well and thankful for the mercies we have been afforded.
This picture, I think, depicts perfectly how many of us are feeling this year. This turkey seems all alone in the world and well aware that he is headed for the dinner table.
There does not seem to be another fowl for miles — kind of feel like many of us are feeling today.
This thanksgiving I am extremely grateful for:-
- Life
- Life, again —grateful I did not die from COVID
- Family and friends — grateful for family and good friends
- My work family
- My employment
As you enjoy your Thanksgiving day with great food and hopefully some family. I pray that we find moments for which we can be grateful.
Enjoy your day whether it is spent on a zoom call or face-timing your loved ones.
If you are having guests over, remember to social distance, practice general hygiene, do not share utensils.
Those of us who trust God know that our life and times are in his hand and so we await his time and purpose. God is always on the throne.
I wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving. Be well, be safe!
Happy Thanksgiving, Pene! We’ve been counting our blessings all week: comfortable home, nutritious food, life, and especially, each other and our extended families.
Amen and continued blessings my friend.
Thanksgiving is not an event here in oz … so usual day … cycle along the beach, chat to a neighbour keeping our physical distance and maybe a swim this arvo as it heats up.
I’m most grateful for life, my health, for my forever home and for dear friends … doesn’t get much better than that 🙂
I know you had a good time.
Happy Thanksgiving, Pene! I’m grateful for so many things. Family, friends and God, are at the top of the list.
Amen my dear friend. Continue to be blessed!
Happy Thanksgiving sis. Do enjoy your time spent with family and friends. 😊
I am grateful for all I have right now in Him. 🙌
Amen to that my sister. Continued blessings to you.
I’m grateful for my mind, body, soul, friends, family, nature, your articles and so many other things.
Amen! I hear that. Thank God for you! Continue to be well!
Very good post! We do have so much to be grateful for. I like that you made a list…It really gets you thinking. Your comment is so very wise…’our life and our times are in God’s hands’. We must practice gratefulness as an art; the more we practice, the better artists we will become. If ever there were an art worth cultivating, it is this; we must train our hearts and our minds to be endlessly thankful for all the big and little things. It is then that we begin to notice God’s hand-print everywhere; His love letters begin to show up in every time and place.
I’m grateful for my niece Benedetta <3 and for my beloved ones.
Thanks God I'm alive!
Hugs

I share your thankfulness.
I’m grateful that God chose to wake my family and I up and enjoy another season together!
Happy New Year!
