A JOYfully Blessed THANKSGIVING!


Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to drink extra servings.

HAPPPPPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
            May I extend warm Thanksgiving greetings from our home to yours!  Is your heart overflowing with joy today as you meditate on the goodness of God?  I know that many of us are busy with preparations for the feast that we’ll enjoy in a few hours.  Hopefully, you’ll be sharing the time with family and friends who are dear to you.  Some of us are grandparents and have the joyful privilege of having little busy bodies running through our homes today.  Why don’t we try to see this day as one of opportunity…..a chance to thank God continually for our many blessings.

  Count your blessings!
        As each individual comes into your path today, lift a silent prayer on their behalf.  When you sit around the table and taste the delicious food, thank God for His provision.  This would be a great time to recall the verse in Psalm 34:8 that says: “Taste and see that the Lord is good.”  That’s a wonderful, simple verse to teach to your children.

            Try to find a time to recall together as a family some of the highlights of the year past.  Even through the tough times, God was near, right?  We can thank Him for never leaving us or forsaking us. 

            May this Thanksgiving Day be a testament to the verse in Psalm 26:7: That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all Your wondrous works ...That’s a sure way to have a day of abundant JOY.

            May prayer for you today is that God will pour out much JOY into your Thanksgiving Day as your lift your heart before Him in love and gratitude.
