Happy Thanksgiving!

Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.

Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.

 For the Lord is the great God,
the great King above all gods.

In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.

The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.

Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;

for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.

~Psalm 95:1-7

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. I believe that every day should be focused on thanking God for his gifts and blessings, but I still love a time that reminds us to be even more intentional with our thankfulness.

We’ve been incredibly blessed, and we give God so much honor and praise! We’ve had our share of struggles, dark times, and pain – but I’m constantly reminded that His love and faithfulness endures forever.

If things were always easy, I think it would be much too easy to take everything for granted. I’m thankful that God gives me struggles to deepen my relationship and dependance on Him. I’m thankful for the outpouring of His good gifts, too!

As we all enjoy time with family and friends, lots of delicious food, and the incredible memories that go along with it – let’s be sure to give thanks to our God and Father!

Happy Thanksgiving!
