Seriously\u2026 let me just say it plain: GOD GAVE ME YOU.
I can\u2019t overstate how much my Facebook and Social Media family and friends mean to me. So before the turkey timer dings and the stretchy pants come out, I wanted to pause and tell you how grateful I am for each and every one of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you for reading my daily posts, for \u201cliking\u201d and commenting, for sending messages that say, \u201cThat was exactly what I needed today.\u201d You\u2019ll never know how often your words have encouraged me right back. God knew I needed a place to cheer you on, pray for you, laugh with you, and sometimes remind you (and myself!) that hope is still alive and well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I know — deep in my soul — that God gave me this little corner of the internet so we could celebrate Him together:
His peace when life rattles us,
His comfort when tears fall,
His joy that bubbles up even on grumpy days,
His strength when ours runs out,
and His beautiful, never-ending grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He\u2019s given us determination, faith, hope, and blessings we can\u2019t even count — no matter how many times we try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m honored\u2014truly\u2014to know you. To have you in my life. To pray for you when challenges rise and to celebrate with you when victories come. You\u2019re part of my story, part of my joy, and part of my daily thanksgiving list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So on this Thanksgiving Eve, let me say it once more:
I\u2019m thankful for YOU.
For your kindness.
For your encouragement.
For allowing me the privilege of walking with you, even if it\u2019s through a screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have a blessed and beautiful Thanksgiving, dear friends.
May God crown your day with goodness, fill your table with joy, and surround your heart with His love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
