Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms.
- Psalms 95:2
I was fortunate to be able to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family in NC about a week shy of the real holiday since I am working during it this year. It was a great time and great food. My mom really outdid herself with the meal she prepared. I was able to see my sister and brother in law, and my niece and nephew as well. My son got to see his cousins and had a great time playing with them. It was good to cut the television off for a day and just enjoy family, the conversations, and the laughter at the table.
I just wanted to quickly mention a few things that I am thankful for this year while so many other things have been a pure mess in 2020. There is good in everything if we’ll just take the time to look for it.
I am thankful for,
God providing for the needs of myself and my family.
Being an American-
Having a job I enjoy that includes the beautiful scenery of Eastern NC, and it’s maritime wildlife-
Having a Christian co-worker and friend that I can talk to about the things of the Lord... on the job and elsewhere-
Loving In-Laws-
Still having my parents-
Time alone in the mountains to pray and enjoy the creation around me-
Seeing my son enjoy time with his grand dad like I did with mine-
So with all of that said, I am truly blessed by the people the Lord has surrounded me with, and by the sights and wonders I have seen this year. I am going to try and write more about them soon. But for now, I hope you have given your all to Jesus Christ, and turned away from your disobedience toward Him. There are still many things to see even while the weather is changing, so go outside and explore the things the Lord has made!
Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
In Christ,
Kevin-
