Day 7: I’m thankful for my youngest daughter – Meariah Lei – also known as Boo or MO! She is a very unique child – lives in her own world – and keeps us very entertained! She was born on the Monday of a revival week and we are in revival again this week! We will celebrate as a family soon! MO: we love you and yes, you can create your very own Snapchat account!

Day 6: I’m thankful for my second child – the middle child – the center child – my only son – Titus! I have to ‘look up’ to him since he is taller than I am but I still imagine him as that little boy that cried for the first six-months of his life! He would be crying when I left for work in the mornings and would still be crying when I arrived home in the afternoon – Wendy said it made for very long days! I’m thankful for the young man that he is and for what God is doing in his life! Titus – keep pressing forward! God has great things ahead for you!

Day 5: I’m thankful for my oldest child – Cherith! When she entered the world more than 18 years ago, I could not have imagined all that God had in store for her – I’m thankful for what God is doing in her life! She is in Nicaragua until later next month, so this will be the first Thanksgiving in her LIFE that we will not be together! Cherith – you have made me and your mom very proud of you! Happy Thanksgiving!

Day 4: I’m thankful for local places like Ace Hardware that are around when you need to repair a broken pipe! It wasn’t on my to do list today, but it’s done!

Day 3: I’m thankful for my wife, Wendy. She has stood beside me for 20+ years doing what the Lord has called us to do!

Day 2: I’m thankful for the Holy Ghost – a true comfort, guide and helper!

Day 1: I’m thankful for my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

As we approach Thanksgiving 2016 I’m reminded that we should not take anything for granted. Time does not stop – nor does it slow down. 

This Thanksgiving season I have so much to be thankful for!

Happy Thanksgiving!
