7 PAX earned their Thanksgiving dinner

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Today is Thanksgiving and I want to share some personal experiences from my life as a reminder that God is worthy of our praise and thankfulness no matter our circumstances.

When I was in middle school my grandmother got very sick and the last two months of her life she lived with us. The day she died I sat in her room crying and God brought a song to my mind. Fast forward to adulthood and my M and I are matched with a birth mother to adopt our first child, a boy we named Sebastian. While with my whole family celebrating my parents 50th wedding anniversary, we receive a call that the birth mother had backed out and we would not be Sebastian’s parents. God brings the same song to mind and we sing as a family. Fast forward about 1 and 1/2 years later and we are in a hospital in Florida preparing to leave with our baby girl. We have gone into say goodbye to her birth mother and although this is a joyous day for us we recognize the pain that Carrie’s birth mother is experiencing. We sing that same song with her and the social worker. The song’s lyrics are this:

“I love you Lord and I lift my voice to worship You. Oh my soul rejoice. Take joy my King in what you hear. May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear”

Some may think this is a strange song to sing during some of the hardest times in my life and they may just be right. The thing is, God is worthy of our praise no matter the circumstance we find our self in.

MOLESKIN:
Pray for Pennies and Shoelaces as they both lost loved ones this week. Pray for Halfday’s M having kidney stone surgery today.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Movember – prostate, testicular and mental health awareness month. I’m a hypocrite, are you? Live what we talk about in the gloom. Be there for one another. Ask another man how are you doing? When asked, be honest. It is not a comparison to does someone have a more deserving situation to share. We all struggle with something. There is no reason to do it alone.
