Another year has passed and time never pauses. We grow older. We learn tough lessons. We live in the midst of beautiful messes.

As we gathered around the table I’m reminded once again of all we have to be grateful for.

The table looks different and we’re all different people than those of last Thanksgiving. I never want to take for granted the moments we’re given and the people we love.

God, let us remember these moments.

Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;

make known among the nations what he has done.

Sing to him, sing praise to him;

tell of all his wonderful acts.

Glory in his holy name;

let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.

Psalm 105:1-3

As we stand out in this field full of stakes, we dream of what is to come and wait in great anticipation of what the future holds.

But for today, we live, we love, we give thanks.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends. I’m so thankful for you.
