Thanksgiving is my
favorite holiday. I love spending the
day in the kitchen creating our "feast". My family does not like the occasional
Thanksgiving that we are not at home simply because there will not be any
leftovers :) I love that they love my
cooking. Cooking is something I do with
my whole heart for my family. It is a
pleasure.
Thanksgiving is a
very special time and what I try to share in my ministry, my writing, my
witness is that Thanksgiving is a year round practice. We should be giving thanks not only through
the good times, but through the bad times as well. So often we get going in a good place in our
lives and we forget to keep that conversation with God going and telling Him we
are thankful for all of the many blessings in our lives. Every day we should be doing this.
And what about the
bad times? The truth is that things can
always be worse. The hard part about
giving thanks to God during those dark times is remembering to send up words of
praise to Him. That is probably one of
the hardest things to do. Praising
during the storm is a true test of faith.
How are you going to
keep this season of thanks going throughout the year?
