I've been thinking a lot about Thanksgiving and the holidays that are coming up...I have lots of thoughts about the holidays....I love them. I love being with my family, making cookies, crafting, making memories....
This year I am going to go home for Thanksgiving. This will be the first time I've been home for Thanksgiving in a few years, I am really looking forward to it. It's always nice to go home, to be around the people that accept you unconditionally, love you for who you are, no expectations, just people that are so glad to see you and hear your stories. It's a good feeling. Actually it's a great feeling to know that wherever I am, I have a place and a people that I belong to, a place where I fit.
It seems nowdays, we all are looking for that special place....I think many of us sometimes feel that we have done so much, gotten so far away from our beliefs, from our roots so to speak that we feel we can't ever go home again. Today, I want you to know that there is a God that loves you unconditionally, that will accept you, and has a place for you. You are important to Him. Unfortunately, it does happen in families where people turn their backs on each other....and it seems we don't have anywhere to turn. You can always turn to Jesus....He will take you back, He will comfort you like no one else can. He cares for you......and when you reach Him, you will finally feel that you have made it home.....

It is sad when families turn away from each other, but I'm thankful God is there no matter what!
ReplyDeleteI won't be going home for Thanksgiving this year, but we have family coming here, so it works out the same. :)
