Today is Thanksgiving Day. A day that we intentionally stop to remember all the “things” that we are grateful for in life. While sometimes it can be looked over or seen as cliché, its a day that matters because thankfulness replaces so many of our problems. Really! When we focus on how much God has done for us, it takes away our worries, our angers, our hurts, our complaints, our fears, and replaces them with unexplainable joy.
Joy that fills our hearts. Joy that flows from our mouths. Joy that brings about peace that passes all understanding.
So as you relish your Turkey dinner smothered in mashed potatoes and gravy, shop the deals till you drop, and all these wonderful memories that are a part of today. Also remember that anything you try to fill your life with outside of Christ won’t bring about contentment, Jesus is the only one that will fill you with thanksgiving and inexplicable joy!
Happy Thanksgiving my friends! I’m so thankful for this little space in the world to write and share the goodness of God in my life. I’m also so thankful for each of YOU that read, comment, share my blog and for being here!❤️
Xoxo, Shantel
