Thanksgiving 2009 -

A precious day of Thanksgiving
to the Lord Who gave us all,
Who became all,
Who giveth and taketh all,
Who bestows us with mercies
and lovingkindness,
and promises to uphold and keep us,
all of our very days,
may you so thank Him for it, today!!!

This year,
although our family is complete together,
all four of us,
we miss some very dear people:
our usual guests: Mr. & Mrs. G!
my dad's grandparents,
and some people who have now joined those
who sit at the Thanksgiving feasts of all
Thanksgiving feasts in the Heavens
with our precious Lord and Savior.

So, I'm just going to link back to last year's post.
I just read it through, and though thinking back,
to last year's Thanksgiving celebration and
thinking of today is hard ....
the Lord is still to be praised,
for wondrous things He hath done!

by Pastor Marcus Serven - it's like being there with the pilgrims,
and seeing what they had, and hearing what was said! :)
Thank you, Pastor Serven for this overview of that day!
