...I read the Bible out loud instead of skimming a magazine while baby and I were waiting for hubby to get home.
...Is there anything I can mention tomorrow to our possibly less-God-fearing friends when we present the Thanksgiving turkey?
...I'm really bad at cooking/baking details now that I haven't been in the kitchen really for years (pumpkin pie disaster). Is it the same with God/Bible?
...Like that I'm getting more familiar with God again.
...New boss said that not having a Bachelors degree might be holding me back from my career goals. Is anything holding me back from God goals (This is seriously, mostly just a shameless ploy to get my mom to call me to discuss education and career opportunities)?
...Sang Jesus loves me after Old McDonald, Itsy bitsy spider and I'm a little teapot on the drive home from school and that was not cool with baby. Need to try starting with Jesus loves me instead. Anything else to add to my kiddy repertoire?
On my heart imprint thine image is coming; Just not quite as happy-go-lucky.
Use tomorrow as an opportunity to pray with your guests and thank God for the day and being able to share your bounty with them. Into the conversation, you may interject some of the findings from the Thankfulness article you referenced earlier in the week - contentment is a learned discipline - gratitude is a gift - the endless pursuit of more creates artificial poverty - thankfulness connects our spirit to the source of all joy....
ReplyDeleteAlong with Jesus Loves Me, add This Little Light of Mine and teach Charlotte to wave her little finger as you sing. She will like that :)
Guess I will have to call and talk about your career goals and God goals - but, for now - I need my rest for turkey day.
God Bless,
