Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!
As for me and my house, we will celebrate Thanksgiving this year by attending Christ Reformed's Thanksgiving Service (led by Rev. Marcelo Souza--some of you may know him as Guy de Brasil) and then we are off to my mother-in-law's house nearby for traditional Thanksgiving fare.
Lord willing, I'll be home in time for a nap in my favorite recliner when the tryptophan coma hits. Hopefully, I'll be conscious enough later to finish up a couple of books I've been reading (Eric Clapton's Autobiography and some background reading for my current sermon series on Judges) and then, if I have room, gobble up some leftovers.
So, I'll be around this weekend and if I feel like it, I'll post. If not, I'll be back on Monday.
Meanwhile, I wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving! As the Psalmist says (Psalm 107:1-9),
1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble
3 and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.
4 Some wandered in desert wastes, finding no way to a city to dwell in;
5 hungry and thirsty,their soul fainted within them.
6 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.
7 He led them by a straight way till they reached a city to dwell in.
8 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!
9 For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.
