This year I have much to be thankful for. A new Grandson: Brady! He is a great delight to my heart. Thanksgiving is a matter of perspective. All I have is from God. Sometimes the Lord gives. Sometimes the Lord takes away. Can I praise His Name under both sets of circumstances? If I understand He is working in both to bring about His eternal good in my life (as promised in Romans 
it makes it easier. Blessings, people, stuff that I might lose, that He might take, are still a wonderful part of the memories that make up my life. Are the people lost to me or have they gone before me? Will I see them again? I believe through Jesus I will. In the mean time I wait, and give thanks for the reunion yet to occur.
Thanksgiving will be great this year. I give thanks for Brady who is a wonderful part of my present…and I hope my future! But either way we have eternity together through Jesus and that is enough to cause my heart to sing!
