Well, our thanksgiving friday has arrived, the turkey is in the oven, and all is in order. The bathroom is done, my toilet installation was an adventure with a happy ending...oh, did I mention it was an adventure.....
Now we wait. At 11:00am or so our family will begin to arrive and the activities in our home will increase. I love it....The sounds, the conversation, the dogs going to and fro...in and out...by the way did I mention that there will be a total of 5 dogs, 2 small children and a whole bunch of adults...We will feast on perfectly roasted turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, green beans, mac and cheese, pies and cakes......I so look forward to this time together.
No worries about tomorrow, we will cherish this time and not allow any intrusion upon our celebration of God's blessings. We may not have tomorrow, so tomorrow can wait...The writer of James describes life poignantly and yet with a sense of urgency to live it together fully and abundantly cherishing every moment as a gift from God... to be shared ...
