Happy Thanksgiving, my friends! As I am writing this I am watching “The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade,” and smelling the wonderful aroma of all the foods that mom is cooking for lunch with the family. Where ever you may be on this holiday I hope that you take some time to remember all that you have to be thankful for.
Today I am thankful for my relationship with Jesus Christ and what He did for all of us on the cross. I am thankful for His grace and mercy that He gives me each day.
I am also thankful for my family who I will see and spend time with today. One fun tradition that our family has done for years is sing what we call “The Thanksgiving Song.” My mom originally started singing it to her sister when they were young to annoy her and it has just stuck. “Today is Turkey Day it’s Ellen’s holiday, and we will laugh and sing and do all kinds of things” (There is your blog shout-out auntie! You are the best and I love you!).
Read Psalm 136 and be thankful. 🙂
