Happy Thanksgiving!

On this day, treasure your family, your life and your blessings.  Find joy and peace in the simple things.  It's not about what you have, but who you're with.  Watch football, stuff yourselves and enjoy being you!  There are those priceless moments in life where you feel complete, and the holidays have always been that for me.

Traveling to Haiti to see my siblings, I found peace and comfort in the little things.  They taught me a valuable lesson, because joy doesn't come in owning everything, it comes with owning nothing and seeking Him.  They are so alive with a love for Christ, because He's the only one who's ever loved them.  They don't have parents to hold them, to wipe their tears, to tuck them in at night... all they have is their Heavenly Father, and He is with them always. :)  So on this Thanksgiving, stop and observe your family around the table, the food the flows over your counters, the blessings that fill your life, and think about the ones that have never seen such a sight and yet still treasure this day to be thankful... for the simple things. :)

God bless you and your families on this day, and may you always find something to be thankful for!
