30 Days of Gratefulness - Day 24

The turkeys are cooking, the pies are done, rolls are done, trifle is chilling, we've had the best family pictures taken by this awesome photographer, footballs playing, and I just wanted to share my thoughts today.

Thanksgiving Day

Today I'm thankful for all the usual things. 

family

friends

food

a home

warmth

wealth

photography

and on and on the list goes

but today I'm overwhelmed with thankful for my Maker. 

God in heaven

Creator of the Universe

He set this world in motion, threw stars into their places, gave them names and a song to sing

and all the way down through everything, He made me. 

And in my heart I bow down and worship 

because it's a little to big and awesome for my small mind and heart to take in.

And on top of it all

He sent a Savior 

to love me

die for me

save me

deliver, redeem, and sanctify me

to make me holy

like He is holy

Sweet Jesus

I think some days in Heaven are going to be a little bit like Thanksgiving Day here on earth, just with a whole lot more people and some rockin' awesome worship time and no dishes to do afterwards. 

Praise Him from whom all blessings flow...

Have a blessed and wonderful Thanksgiving. <3
