It doesn't matter what has happened in life. A life falling apart. Thanksgiving. A heart torn apart. Thanksgiving. A bad day gone worse. Thanksgiving. An undoable schedule. Thanksgiving. Loss. Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving regardless. Not based on circumstances. But based on Christ. The Conqueror of Circumstances.

Hi Debbie,
Lovely to meet you. I am following you from A Holy Experience. Lovely counting of gifts. And yes - it doesn't matter our circumstances - we can find the gift of God in each day.
Blessings,
