Well for my family’s thanksgiving, we usually would go up to North Carolina to visit my mom’s side of the family. We generally stay there for three or four days. Now that is quite an interesting scene. The number of people present in one house tends to be somewhere around 15–20. And, now that my close family is wholeheartedly devoted to Jesus, there tends to be a little bit of conflict from our jewish and atheist relatives. Now add to all that the fact that my mom’s family is entirely Russian. Most of the traditional thanksgiving foods I can barely even pronounce, let alone feast upon.
However, this year we decided to have a wonderful American thanksgiving here at home. We invited a family from church to celebrate with us and it turned out really well. I loved it. And on top of that I has an inexhaustible list of things to be thankful for. God has poured out His love and blessing over my life so much. I love getting to celebrate all He has done and is doing. “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever.” (Psalm 136:1)
