Happy ThanXgiving!

On this special day dedicated to giving thanks for the benevolence and beneficence of God from Whom every good and perfect gift emanates, I wish you all a very happy Thanksgiving with your family, friends, and proverbial neighbors. Isn't it wonderful to have a holiday that puts aside the commercialism and materialism of contemporary culture and allows its celebrants just to appreciate, love, and enjoy? Thank God for His goodness, your kith and kin for their love, and others for their "random acts of kindness."

John,
  Thank you for your kind remarks.  All glory goes to God in any good that has been accomplished by me.  Also, I want to commend you on your dedication and diligence in being a good Dad to your four children.  They are very blessed!  Also, thank you for being such a good friend, not only to my second son, but to all of us!!    Love in Christ,  James' mom
