Happy Thanksgiving

Today is a national day to pause and give thanks for the numerous blessings which surround us. As I write this, my dog and cat are curled up nearby reminding me to say: Thank you God for the domestic animals who are wonderful companions.

My husband is working,
thank you God that Sean has a job.

The electricity is on, the water is running, and the heat is working
: Thank you God, that I live in a house with comfort controls.

I called my nephews, and heard a chipper 3 yr old screech in delight "Happy Thanksgiving, Aunt Kim" Thank you God for the gift of children and for keeping my nephews healthy and safe.

There is much to be thankful for in the midst of this economic down turn. We might not be able to do everything we desire, but for most we have what we need. May God give everyone their daily bread today.
