As the name of my blog indicates, I spend a lot of time thinking about home. Of course, my Heavenly Home is the one that is eternal, so that’s where I need to lay up my treasures, and that’s the one I’m striving for. But in the meantime, I have been given this tiny piece of the here-and-now—this home on the edge of town, this family, this neighborhood—in which to serve Him. And, though this is in the earthly realm, I want the things that happen here to be investments in the Heavenly realm.

Behold Our God

 


Yesterday, we made pies and sweet potato casserole and made place cards, all while singing along with our Thanksgiving playlist!
There have certainly been some hard things about this year, and your year may have been much harder than mine! But when I behold Him -- when I consider His greatness and His goodness -- I cannot help but praise Him!

🎶 Who has given counsel to the Lord?
🎶 Who can question any of his words?
🎶 Who can teach, the one who knows all things?
🎶 Who can fathom all his wondrous deeds?




However you're celebrating today, I hope that you are able to pause and behold our God and praise Him

Happy Thanksgiving to you, my friends!

    1. We still sing at our church, but singing through a mask is hard. We will all appreciate singing SO much when we're able to sing with gusto again!

      Thank you . . . it was a lovely day!

    1. Yes! Sometimes the days before a holiday celebration can be as meaningful as the actual day!

  9. That was beautiful...such harmonies...words from Job...I am in no position to question Him or His ways. They are certainly far higher than my own. Hope that your Thanksgiving was blessed beyond measure.
