A Thank You to Our Readers

Tis the season in the U.S. to celebrate Thanksgiving and to take a moment to be thankful.

Today I would like to thank you. Those of you who read our blog regularly either via an email subscription or RSS feed or visiting the site.

I am grateful for the time you have invested in reading what we write. Ask any of us and we will tell you the hours we spend in creating these posts, and the discussions we have about what topics to tackle. But without you the effort would be for naught.

Therefore I want to sincerely and officially thank you for the time you have given to us each week.

Now, go and do likewise to someone else. Gratefulness is becoming a lost art. Taking a moment to bless someone who is not expecting it because it can bring a small measure of joy in a world gone mad.

As William Arthur Ward wrote, “Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joys, and change opportunities into blessings.”

“And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” (Colossians 3:17)

In the spirit of gratitude on this Thanksgiving Day, I share with you today’s Gospel reading from The Book of Common Prayer: John 6:26-35 26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. 27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto …

Holidays. People love them…people hate them. For my family, we fall in the “love ‘em” category. Thanksgiving always means getting together, sharing laughter and great food and playing all kinds of games. We bake and decorate and spend time watching football. Even the challenging Thanksgivings become a source of fun. Like the first time I fixed a turkey for Don and me. I made a huge bowl of …

Giving Credit Where Credit is Due

Everyone is thinking about being thankful this week so it is comforting knowing that I am not alone on this bandwagon. When President Obama said the words, “You didn’t build that,” back in 2012 and drew such ire from opponents, I was troubled. I understood what he was trying to say…that no one does things on their own without help from someone else. He probably could have found better words to …

I have many people and circumstances to be thankful for but on this Thanksgiving Day, I am going to focus on you, our blog readers.

Thank you for being faithful to stop by every weekday, not only to see my posts, but the posts by Steve, Dan, and Karen. I can safely say all of us hope we edify and inform you -- and even entertain you once in awhile.

One more day and many of us will be seated around a table, mouths watering as we watch Dad or Grampa or Hubby carve a steaming, golden turkey. As I thought about the many Thanksgiving celebrations we’ve shared in my family--days of fellowship and laughter, gratitude and blessing--I remembered singing that wonderful old hymn, “We Gather Together.”

So join me, you lovers of words, you craftsman …
