Thanksgiving ‘25
So, I’ve got to spend another holiday with my wife and mom down in Florida. We were joined this year with our daughter (Brooke), her husband (JW) and their kids: Tripp, Daisy, Braxton and Stetson. My brother lives down in Florida (Albert), and he came over and ate a Thanksgiving dinner with all of us, we ALL got really stuffed and we had a great time.
All vacations must come to an end … and our daily lives must always return back to normal where we can all do what we normally do.
I know Kim and I have a cruise coming up in February and I cannot wait … I really enjoy being out on the water, probably more than anything.
Being on vacation, spending time with my family, allowed me to put the events that are going on in this country behind me. I didn’t watch any daily or nightly news, and I didn’t focus on what was happening all around me. I spent my time mostly focusing on the grandkids that were in front of me and nothing else really mattered.
Today, we are too easily taken away by things that really don’t even involve us. We trouble ourselves because we think we might make a difference but really, there’s nothing that we can do to change anything.
Not one way or the other are our actions going to sway the outcome … God has all of this in His control, all we need to do is keep our focus on Him and let Him show us which way He wants us to go, and we need to FOLLOW Him.
Proverbs 3
vs5 ‘…Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding…’
vs6 ‘…In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths…’ AKJV
We don’t have to worry about what is going on around us … God is in control. We just need to keep our eyes focused on Him and let Him lead us in the way that He wants us to go.
Our lives are so short, we get ourselves caught up in matters that don’t involve us, when instead, the ONLY One that really should matter to us, it seems we find every excuse that we can imagine to look the other way.
Spend your day today, just thinking about God, keep your eyes fixed on Him, just think of all the ways He is affecting your life.
Appreciate what you have been given. If you see someone next to you that might need a little ‘hands up,’ help them out, offer them what you can.
In the long run, you will feel so much better about yourself.
Keep God in the front of your mind. Allow Him to sit on your shoulder and lead your way throughout your day.
Let Him lead you in the direction that He needs for you to go.
Philippians 4:7 ‘…And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus…’ AKJV
I love ALL of y’all … and remember, Jesus loves you even more than I can even imagine.
Be blessed.
