Triple C News - Nov. 18

Hey, everyone!

Can you believe it?

It's already almost Thanksgiving Day!! 

What IS it about that day that is so awesomely beautiful?

Is it the smells that take you back to memories that are sweeter than pecan pie?

Is it the sentimental feeling inside that feels warmer than the bird in the oven?

Is it the thoughts of "Thanksgivings Days-gone-by" that swell your heart like a helium balloon drifting down Fifth Ave in front of Macy's?

I don't think so, really.

I think the thing inside my heart that I love on Thanksgiving is that it gives you a whiff of the feeling that should fill every room in your heart every day of the year! 

To deliberately, intentionally, thoughtfully, purposefully, methodically, introspectfully and retrospectfully slooooooow dooooooown long enough to thank God for…

all we have…

all He is…

all He gives…

THAT'S what feels so awesome and "Thanksgiving-y" about Thanksgiving Day!

It's not from remembering what "the Day" used to feel like, but from realizing in a quiet corner of your heart that this is the way every day should feel!

To be filled with thanks is as beautifully satisfying and satisfyingly filling as two or three plate-loads of turkey and stuffing!

“And so on this day, Friday November 18, in the year of our Lord two thousand and twenty two…

Let us thank God for all His goodness!

For all His promises! 

For loving each of us so wonderfully!

For washing us clean and making us His!

For giving us delicious food and a beautiful land!

For filling our hearts with joy!

For giving the faith to trust Him when it gets tough!

For a life full of growing family and loving friends!

For something good and sweet to do for Him!

For our awesome Triple C family! 

Thanks be to Almighty God for all His blessings!”

And at our house, we thank God for you!!

We love you all and hope this is “blessed-est” Thanksgiving ever!!
