Village Squire Entertaining The New Minister - Edward Lamson Henry
The turkey is slow roasting, the smell spreading through the house. Everyone is still snug in bed, savoring the chance to sleep in.
I have been thinking about the Pilgrims, who risked everything to come to a new world in order to have the freedom to worship the Lord differently than the way the official church was worshiping. I wonder if I would have that kind of courage.
We will be feasting today, and giving thanks for the abundant blessings we have been given,
Salvation
God's Word
Freedom
Family
Our home
Two vehicles
3 horses
2 dogs
1 cat
Clothes
Comfy beds
Warm blankets
Shoes - more than one pair

The list of course could go on and on...
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

We're going to my brother and sil's house, so I don't have the smell of turkey roasting in my house today. I'm looking forward to it though. Have a wonderful day with your family!
Blessings,
