Thanksgiving doesn't have to be over!

Yes, I know this post might have been more timely last month, but "better late than never!"
This year my family and I have put together what we have called "An Alphabet of Thanksgiving". We went through the alphabet, finding at least one "thanksgiving" for each letter. Some of the letters were challenging, but it was a very meaningful activity.
The reason for posting this today is that, even though it's Christmas, and in a few hours we'll be thinking "Happy New Year", Thanksgiving should be a way of life, not just one day!
I invite you and your family to make your own "Alphabet of Thanksgiving" as 2009 comes to a close.
And, to get a jump on everyone else, "Happy New Year!"

Merry Christmas!

My prayer for each of you is that the God of Peace will be with you. So many people are facing significant challenges as 2009 comes to a close - but God's Son is with us. He is "Emmanuel, God with us". In the midst of the holiday rush, please try to find even a few minutes to sit and experience His peace.
