We Give Thanks by J. Bennett We give thanks to thee for the golden day for the song of the river for the whisper of the trees for the mountains watching over the sea and for the blue blanket of the heavenly sky. We give thanks to thee for each breath that we sigh for the beating of the drum deep inside for the blessing of each precious day and most of all we give thanks for thy gracious love. I thought this Celtic Thanksgiving song was beautiful and wanted to share it today as we get ready for Thanksgiving…

Water in the Desert

Posted in Christian Life, and Holidays

While we were out exploring a new area, we came across some water in the desert. Because this area is so dry, water is very precious. We could see all different signs of life in the area.

The Bible

Posted in Christian Life, and Holidays

We are blessed to have many different Bibles around the house in various translations (only a few are shown above). Munchkin found 2 of D’s from his childhood just the other day. I pulled out a couple of my own Bibles from when I was younger. It’s fun looking back at the Bibles from our youth. At the same time, it reminds us how fortunate we are to have more than one Bible in our home. There are too many people not only abroad, but also here in the U.S. who don’t even own a Bible. Just having Bibles sitting…
