Give Thanks

I know today can be hectic - pie to bake, turkey to roast, deserts to whip together, take that turkey back out of the oven and put the stuffing inside it that should have been in there an hour ago, tables to set.... you know what I am talking about. 

But despite all of that - even if the stuffing isn't ready on time, even if the in-laws showed up late, even if the pie is a tad underdone, just sit back for a second and look around. 

Honestly, you really have a lot to be thankful for.

I don't know the list, but you do. You know all those things that show in little ways that God is there and is caring for you far better than you ever could yourself. Sometimes we forget it in the hustle-bustle hurly-burly lives we live, and need to mentally take a step back and take stock of all we have been blessed with. 

So, this is just a quick reminder - a brief pit stop in the race of life today. 

No matter what, remember God is good, and give thanks.  

And you never know, that pie might taste better half cooked after all.
