When Luke was born and still in the hospital, one of our pastors gave me a book called, Whisper a Prayer for Moms. It's a sweet little book with many different prayers in it and for my last Thanksgiving post, there is one that I just think says it all:
"O God,
I have enjoyed such an abundant harvest in my life, I can scarcely ask for more, because you've already given me so much. A warm home. A family. Good food. and many other blessings.
But my greatest joys are not in a harvest of material possessions or grand accomplishments. My deepest joy is found in the wonderful experieences that are mine as a mother, as a wife, as your child.
No wonder you tell us in your Word to remember your mighty deeds and thew ays that you have worked on our behalf. I won't forget the ways your presence has blessed my life, and I will continue to thank you for the siple memories that last a lifetime."
I hope this day finds you enjoying all the blessings that God has given you. Happy Thanksgiving!
