I am so thankful for so many things....

11/22/07
Last night with John (the 93, almost 94 yr old) was awesome. I brought him honey baked turkey, homemade mashed potatoes,stuffing,pie and wine. Do ya know what he went out and bought just because I was coming? Canadian Mist and Gingerale...LOL...awww! We ate dinner together and then I fixed him a plate of food for today (thanksgiving) since he wont be having company until Friday. He speaks of how close to death he is and I gave him a pep talk about being "young at heart" and enjoying every moment he has:). We spoke about so many different things. He is such a devout Catholic, he told me about different saints that he prays to and all his loved ones that he prays for. We are able to speak about faith openly (to a certain extent of course) and I will be so happy when his eyes are opened. It won't be long...:)

We had a huge Thanksgiving dinner here! Delicious!!! My Aunt and Uncle, Sarah and David,Del Thomas and Vee (my cousin and his wife) Sarah's parents, Isaac, Gabriel and Lola:) I am still stuffed! Isaac had his first bite of turkey:)


and here are my thoughts for this evening..
There are people in this world that seem to have nothing to be thankful for. People are negatively affected by their own doing,someone elses doing or the fact that this is an imperfect world ever since choices were made in the Garden of Eden.There have been times in my life where I felt angry for some of the things I experienced or had go through...things that seemed unfair, darkness that felt as if you should be able to just wake up and it would be gone,but...

I believe that everything will come full circle eventually. Whether in this life or the next. I believe in God. I believe that Jesus died for my sins and I am made anew everytime I sincerely go to Him and ask for forgiveness. I believe that God knows my heart. I believe in the coming Kingdom of God. I believed He has revealed to us much truth but I also know we don't know everything or even close to it...I believe there is another dimension that we cannot comprehend, I believe in the possibility of the impossible, I believe in a perspective that we don't have...Everything will come full circle It has to.





I THANK GOD FOR ALL THAT WE DONT SEE
