US Thanksgiving

A place to relate, share, care for, and support one another. A place to share about our daily activities and events around the home.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

SMALL AND GREAT BLESSINGS of 2020

My old, mostly deaf and blind dog’s rescue on a rainy night, and return to me the next morning.
“Visions Beyond the Veil” by Howard Baker, a fascinating account of the Holy Spirit’s working in a children’s home in China
Looking down on Chimney Rock from high atop the mountain
Spiced pumpkin smoothie
Hilarious teasing between our restaurant table group and our waiter, which made it easy to give him a tract
Downtown, thinking, ‘I’m going around handing out pictures of hell!’ Next recipient of the tract, a young, black man: “I like this picture.”
Device chargers that work quickly
A friend telling me I have been a tremendous help to her
Reading my dad’s prayer journal from over seventy years ago, and seeing the victories through very hard times
Store associates who are gracious
COVID survivors
My lost purse turned in to the police station in Maine, with nothing stolen
Prisoner’s father: “We find your ministrations to our son to be indeed dear to us. You have chosen a ministry only God can repay.”
Opportunities to hand out hundreds of tracts/Christian newspapers at a time, to needy people in Cape Town
Family and friends awaiting me in Heaven
A releasee’s comment, “Most of what I have since I got out is because of you.”
An abundant pecan crop this year, blown down by strong winds
Interstate signs over the highway that are actually placed over the correct exit lane
24/7 access to the God of the universe
Watching my little great-niece and nephew pick blueberries
Friends that faithfully hold us and our ministries up in prayer
Getting out of South Africa a day or two before international travel closed down
Knowing that God is in control, whatever happens in our country

Try hard not to offend. Try harder not to be offended.
Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not after you.
I think I am funnier than I really am.
