Thanksgiving Day is Here

Susan

O give thanks unto to the Lord, for He is good; His mercy endures forever!

This phrase, found 6 times in scripture, fills me.

We sing it nearly weekly in Matins.

It makes me filled with joy and happiness in the Lord.

It fills me with thankfulness.

O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good; His mercy endures forever!

Today I give thanks…unto the Lord.

I work hard to give thanks every day…for He is good!

For Christ is Risen every day…His mercy endures forever!

Won’t you join me in giving thanks?!

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all!

I am an Orthodox Christian, a deacon’s wife, a mother, and an aspiring Kindler of Joy. I believe I’ve begun to understand (finally), by the grace of God, where we can begin to find happiness. True happiness. My heart longs for a deeper connection to those around me and to creation. I want to feel joy not only in myself but to see it on the face of people I love and those that God brings my way. Thus, begins my journey to become a Kindler of Joy. It is a journey, a path of learning and growing. So I’ve created my blog as a reminder to myself, daily, to open my eyes and find the beauty and joy around me. I long to share this joy, to spread this joy and to inspire others to become Kindlers of Joy. When we kindle joy in others we spread a light throughout this dark world. A light that is desperately needed. Won't you join me in spreading this light, this joy?
