If, like me, you are a Canadian, this is the weekend to eat too much turkey and stuffing, gather with family and friends, and give thanks.
Giving thanks is all about taking note of the blessings we have, rather than wishing for something new. It is about recognizing the abundance in life. It is about being giving thanks in all things, in every circumstance (1 Thessalonians 5:18) … but you can read more about that tomorrow (Sunday) at http://www.itsawonderfilledlife.net .
This week, it was, by far, Giving Birth, that was the most viewed post. A post that I wrote about my son … but I think it was most viewed because the experience of giving birth as a life-long experience is shared by most moms (and maybe even a dad or two).
Also this week, I published:
… And You Became Mine
(the promise of all promises)
Why Are You Downcast Oh My Soul
(a little longing from Psalm 42)
No Guarantees
(getting what we deserve?)
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
(pondering the need for adult recess)
Blessings to you this day,
Carole
