i'm thankful...

It's Thanksgiving weekend - & am i ever thankful.
The turkey we ate last night is still fresh in my memory... my littles are finally being quiet after a crazy loud morning... my kitchen is back in it's normal condition... & i managed to find a pair of pants to wear today.
Life is good.
But, i know that in the bad years - as well as the good years... The One that i am most thankful for, never changes...
& so, today - i want to find the time to wrap my arms around my little darlings - & whisper truth in their ears...
"Jesus loves me -"
He gives and takes...
"we are weak but He is strong -"
He is worthy...
"little ones, you belong to Him -"
As do i - & i find refuge in the shadow of His wings...
My gratitude has become mature enough not to be conditional.
& i know that no matter the day - the year - the loss - the gain... my Father has sifted what i have been given - & He is trustworthy.

I love that thought,

"My gratitude has become mature enough not to be conditional...."

Isn't that a sweet place to be? Simply knowing that Father loves us and we can trust Him through anything....He really doesn't have to do one more thing for us....(except He want to...haha)
