We're ONE WEEK away, people! One week away from my favorite holiday of the whole year: Thanksgiving! While it's a good goal to practice being thankful throughout the whole year, it's always around this time when I start thinking about the things I'm thankful for. It's a time of reflection over the whole year, and picking out those moments that most stick out in your mind, and praising the Lord for them. I don't know what your Thanksgiving Day/week looks like, but I just wanted to encourage you, that in the midst of the family time, Thanksgiving dinner, and the days leading up to the holiday, to slip away by yourself. Take a notebook along with you, if you prefer journaling your thoughts. Think about the things you are grateful for that happened this year, last year, or whenever! Just take a moment to breathe in the atmosphere and be filled with gratitude toward God for His abundant blessings. Jot down things you are thankful for. This year, my sister and I are doing a challenge to write down 7 things we are thankful for every day of the month of November. It's hard to commit to, I know, but it really does help you look back over your day, your week, your year, and see God's faithfulness in sustaining you and helping you through each and every day. Now that's something to be thankful for! ;) Enjoy some throwback photos of fall fun and Thanksgiving weekends gone by! Priceless memories that I'll be thankful for, for a long time to come. :)
"It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High. . ." (Psalm 92:1) Happy Thanksgiving!
