Post holiday reflections of Thanksgiving

Now that I've stuffed myself and enjoyed having the family around me, I can now begin to reflect on what it all means. Being thankful should be an everyday occurrence. It shouldn't be just the one day. Yet often when we go back towards the rush of getting things ready for Christmas, we forget to be thankful. We run out of time. We tell ourselves that we can think about being thankful some other time. Most times we don't really stop and consider all that God has granted us. We take too much for granted. I know. I am that way. I forget what the Lord is doing and what he has done for me.

There are too many things to be thankful for, we often lament or too little. I guess I'm a fool for thinking that we should be thankful for all things. I believe that all things work out for the best, and that's why I'll continue to be thankful every day.
