A related scripture I’d like to add:
Job 2:10
“Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?”
A Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone!

Thanksgiving Day Dinner
We have our family gathered here,
To talk about another year,
Of childrens teeth and strength of limb,
And who gave birth to another him.
The table almost makes a sound,
As yet more burden is inbound,
A noble bird makes its last flight,
And joins us for a feast tonight.
With mashed potatoes, candied yams,
Peas and corn, and sugared hams,
Cranberry sauce to please the eye,
And dont forget the pumpkin pie.
A bowl of gravy, steaming hot,
And Grandmoms soup in the old stewpot,
Some buttered rolls and special bread,
But not a bite til Grace is said.
Before you help to pass the bowls,
The One Who helped you reach your goals,
Is listening for your voices clear,
To give Him thanks is why were here.
Please just be patient for a mite,
And hold in check your appetite,
The Lord will get His just desserts,
With each strong voice that Love asserts.

Happy Thanksgiving, Meg. Thank you for the adorable graphic.
I will be off and on today.
I've had my coffee, made fruit salad and have turkey in the oven.
God Bless you and yours today and always.

I do an easy Thanksgiving dinner. My menu is not very extensive.
Turkey with dressing, ham, mashed potatoes with gravy; yams, green bean casserole and fruit salad. Hubby is going to cook some carrots. I bought frozen pies this year. I usually get pies from either Costco or Marie Calendar.
We usually spend three days at the coast for our anniversary. My friend says we’re the only one she knows who takes their family on a vacation for their anniversary. LOL
It was 52 years on the 16th. We wait until school is on Thanksgiving break to do anything. It has become a tradition. :)

Sea Fever
I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by, And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking, And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife; And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
By John Masefield (1878-1967). (English Poet Laureate, 1930-1967.)

Thanksgiving Prayer
Heavenly Father, on Thanksgiving Day
We bow our hearts to You and pray.
We give You thanks for all You've done
Especially for the gift of Jesus, Your Son.
For beauty in nature, Your glory we see
For joy and health, friends and family,
For daily provision, Your mercy and care
These are the blessings You graciously share.
So today we offer this response of praise
With a promise to follow You all of our days.
--Mary Fairchild
To: Aquamarine
Amen!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, AQUA!

"Lord, before we come to ask Your blessing
On this special day we call Thanksgiving,
We would bow to You, our sins confessing,
Then well lift our praise in grateful living.
~Hess~
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours on this day that we give thanks.
Thank you for sharing ODB, Mayor.
