We are cooking chicken hens instead of turkey, pies, cornbread dressing, broccoli casserole, and more! Oh, boy, the kitchen smells good... I so wish I could share the wonderful aroma with you all!
We are fixing many of the traditional dishes that have been in our family for generations. While preparing the food, so many memories flood my mind of such precious times that I wish I could go back to so I could hold onto loved ones who are not with us! Those memories are one of the things I am so thankful for this holiday season!
What a blessing it is to be surrounded by my family, looking around that table and seeing everyone's faces. Thank you, Lord! As we celebrate Thanksgiving and gather with family & friends...let us be thankful for one another, enjoy one another, love one another, treasure one another...and let us always be grateful for the One that saved us all...Jesus...the abundance of God, and may His love fill your heart this holiday season to come!
I pray all of you can gather with the ones you love. I wanted to personally thank you all. I am grateful to have met so many wonderful friends!
My prayer this Thanksgiving is that God will bless us with HIS joy, hope, peace, and love! May we all give thanks in all we do and be grateful for what we have, giving thanks for God's many wonderful blessings!
I hope you all have a Blessed, Happy Thanksgiving!
What a touching post! I so wish I could smell it as well! God Bless!
