Thanks GIVING...

The harvest is nearly all in.

This is the first day of a week of Thanksgiving. These are times that challenge us all; but joy, real joy can't be touched and isn't determined by circumstance... 

"Lord empower us to drill down deep and discover joy in simplicity, in being; a kind touch, a gentle word, a thoughtful deed, a smile, a poignant moment. Use us as instruments that produce a concert of joy in every context we find ourselves this week, and every week. Amen."

Make this a happy thanks GIVING.
