Thanksgiving

Come ye thankful people come.
Raise the song that harvest has come.
All are safely gathered in
Before the winter storms begin
God our maker will provide
for our wants to be supplied
Come to God's own temple come
Raise the song... we are safe and we are home.

I love Thanksgiving.  It is such a beautiful holiday.
If you are really awake in life, then you know that every single day is thanksgiving.

If you can find one thing to be thankful for it changes everything.
Are you sad?  Is your nose stuffy?
There is something yet to be thankful for.  Find it.  Find the thing.
If you can find one thing to be thankful for it changes everything.

Meister Eckhart, a Catholic monk lived around 1300.  One of his favorite quotes....
"If the only prayer that you learn in this life is thank you, then that is enough."

Happy Thanksgiving my friends!

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
