Thanksgiving in January?

Wow! Last night I experienced a true night of Thanksgiving. It wasn’t a meal in fact I didn’t even eat! I truly embraced Thanksgiving for those in my life that serve around me and with me!

A pageant in Troy left me without two teachers and an assistant. Also, another teacher was sick . These young ladies sow each week into the lives of kids from around Pike County. They have a huge job and do it well. As I stopped to beg the TEC Crew class to stop talking I noticed I could hardly talk because I was out of breath. I looked at a clock and noticed that I had been teaching since 4:15 and it was then 6:45.

I am so extremely grateful to all the teachers and assistants that make In His Steps function and flow with the Heart of Christ Weekly.

I got home and sat down on the couch next to my husband and just being next to him made me feel content. My legs throbbed and back stiff but all was well next to him. Conversation yeah, but even not saying anything would have still rendered the same thankfullness I had that I have a husband to come home to that I can sit next to and feel better by just being there.

Today, I am trying to practice noticing those in my life that are a constant that bless me and help support me in life.

I am Thankful in January. Thank You God!
