\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On Thanksgiving Eve, surrounded by family, I slipped off for a few moments to pray my Thanksgiving Prayer for all of you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you become fully aware of all the ways God has blessed you.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you hold every child in your family, and feel the love that returns to you.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you see with fresh eyes the beauty that God has placed all around you.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you enjoy the bountiful blessings at the Thanksgiving table, and then share from your plenty, with those less fortunate.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you feel the joy of Thanksgiving.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you feel the peace of being in His care.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you know the forgiveness that only He can grant.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May the peace and joy of this season, and the season to come, descend on you!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May you know how very much I appreciate having all of you in my life!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Him,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
