Thanksgiving Dinner again!

Hello Everybody,
I was blessed tonight--Sunday night--because I had another Thanksgiving dinner. My beloved had bought a turkey before the big day and decided to make it tonight--since we didn't have to make one for our big day. She put it in the roaster right after church and then started working on some Christmas projects. I worked on making our family schedule then I thought I might help cook supper with my wife. She was busy on her projects so I dug in and got started. It isn't often that I get to help cook any more or cook at all. I was excited to peel potatoes and start making the "cream" for the creamed corn. Basically, I pretty much took over the cooking on my poor wife. I enjoyed doing it and even kept up with the dishes. She said the the corn was a hit and that the dinner turned out well. (Her turkey turned out perfect. I can't remember when I had one so delicious--well, I believe it was the last time she made one!) I was finally able to eat more turkey than I needed to and I loved it.

Dinner was not only wonderful, so was the time sitting there with the people I love the most--my beloved and our six children. Our Lord has blessed me once again with such an excellent time of fellowship with them. It was full of lively stories and jokes and full of laughs and smiles. I could not be any richer than I am--unless the Lord would want to use my wife and I to bring more of His heritage into the world through us--more children. I love to sit around and just look at each one of them and I can't describe what a wonderful blessing it is to look into my beloved's big beautiful brown eyes in times like this--this is heavenly and only possible by God's graces.

I hope all of you reading this feel the same way about your spouses and children. If not, dive into the Word of God and let Him show you what they really are in your life and what you really are to them. I dare you! You will be changed eternally! To God be the Glory!
