Offerings of Thanks

[Neighbor]

On this USA "holiday" of Thanks Giving  There is so much for which to give thanks to God. Utmost of which is the sacrifice made by  His son  come in  human flesh to suffer and sacrifice his own  blood that many might have eternal life with Him, the Holy Spirit, and His Father. His sacrifice being fully sufficient to redeem each that do hear and heed the call of God the Holy Spirit to turn about to the worship of Jesus as Lord God and savior, and then be seen by God the Father as  being perfect and thus acceptable in His sight.

No matter the individual circumstance  of the moment, whether dire and meager, or overflowing in opulence, the hope that is certain is the promise that God has come and will come yet again.

Praise God that regardless of circumstance the very hope certain  is the promise of God for eternal blessing to come to us individually  even as each that have been called  to their salvation are a blessing back to God.

Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus come.

Happy Thanksgiving ^.^ I read that America is this first country to designate a single day to Give Thanks to God.

I have a lot to be thankful for this year. After years of struggling with chronic anemia and years of praying for healing: I think my recent surgery has finally given me a new start on life and I'm so grateful to God for being able to have that type of surgery, in a safe environment by skilled surgeons.

This year is a bit different for us, we're not hosting nor having a whole turkey dinner. My brother and sister-in-law are coming tomorrow, and we're cheating and having Turkey Subs. How is every one else celebrating?

Having a total of 8 friends and family here, with a "potluck" dinner.  (I'm doing the mashed taters, my wife's doing the pumpkin pies & cranberry sauce, and others are bringing the rest)

 

Praise God He's Got this (this = whatever)!

They just left a few minutes ago.
Our adult children and their children, 12 ea grand kids, headed home. Much food, as each brought his/her specialty/concoctions. My son brought a couple of birds, pre cooked (in the pit) so my wife only had to get the extra table leafs to seat ten at the big table, plus xtra tables/chairs etc for the 12 grand kids, and the mashed potatoes and gravy, fresh corn, green beans, bread and biscuits, coffee tea and sodas, jalapeno popper bacon raps etc . Mucho caliente salsas, so much pre dinner oeuvres (finger food, finger licking good) and other goodies, I was stuffed more than the birds, even before the main meal.

We had our traditional circle of giving Thanks individually, a circle of holding hands,  each testifying what they are thankful to God for. As being oldest I like to pick one of the younger kids to lead the prayers. Later watching Dallas Cowboys win over NY Giants, then everybody sorta split up with the women together, kids, dads grand pa/ma etc, getting caught up with the latest happenings, and finally then another good night.

We are very blessed with the simple stuff, corny as it may seem to others. I really try to make it known to our family how blessed beyond measure we are to be able to enjoy a family meal at our home in our country of the free, when so many throughout the world have no freedoms or homes, and very possibly no food. I Thank God for all his blessings upon our family this day.
