Song: Prayer of Thanksgiving

Artist: Hymns, pg. 93

Happy Week of Thanksgiving!! 🙏🦃

I can't believe how fast this month has flown by!! I guess getting COVID and quarantining really took up a good chunk of my time! As difficult and emotionally draining as the last two weeks have been, I am overwhelmed with GRATITUDE!! My family and I have been beyond blessed!! I am so grateful that we are all recovering with no serious problems or side-effects, that our symptoms were mild, that my puppy dog was blessed with his health and didn't contract the virus, that I never lost my TASTE (this was actually a huge concern for me people!!)! Feeling extra grateful today. 

I hope to make this next week one of gratitude in all that I do and say. I hope to find opportunities to reach out and serve. I know I am so blessed. I'm feeling really emotional because as difficult as this year has been, I know that I have so much to be thankful for and I'm feeling that! From my family, home, food, security, music, technology, comforts, warmth, clothing, everything I have so much!! Beyond blessed.

We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing;

He chastens, and hastens his will to make known;

The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing.

Sing praises to his name;

He forgets not his own.

Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,

Ordaining, maintaining his kingdom divine;

So from the beginning the fight we were winning;

Thou, Lord, wast at our side;

All glory be thine!

We all do extol thee, thou leader triumphant,

And pray that thou still our defender wilt be.

Let thy congregation escape tribulation;

Thy name be ever praised!

O Lord, make us free!
