We had a very meaningful Thanksgiving service at church this morning. In addition to wonderful music and a new video, several young folks ranging in age from 10 to teenagers, came up and read scripture. Their quiet confidence was awesome. Then we had an extended time for "praise and thanksgiving (also prayer requests)" from the congregation. We do this fairly regularly -- a microphone is brought around to whoever raises his or her hand. Today there were so many folks who stood up and told their stories of how God had answered prayers and blessed them. I am proud and humbled to say that Doug was one of them -- he told how he believed that God and many prayers had saved his life. We are truly so blessed and thankful.
We will spend Thanksgiving Day with family at the home of our daughter-in-law Jamee's parents, in Pueblo. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. No gift-giving or excess commercialization. Just gathering together with appreciation, and of course, lots of good food!
Still can't publish photos. Our computer has been repaired, runs faster now and hopefully with a bit more tinkering the D drive will cooperate.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
