Thanksgiving

First off, the reason why I haven't been posting is because my family and I have been in Virginia and D.C./Maryland over Thanksgiving Break. I'll try to start posting again though.

I love Thanksgiving! Not only because of the big tasty feast that this holiday celebration usually includes, (which speaking of we didn't really have in D.C. this year. But that's alright!) But because its a time to spend with your family and maybe relatives and just be thankful for all of the wonderful blessings that God has given to you, and to your family. We don't realize how blessed we are. I'm not trying to give a huge lecture or anything, but its true. My mom has told me many times when I was being ungrateful that I don't realize how blessed I am. Sometimes I would just get frusterated when she said that to me, but now I'm starting to realize that she is right.

Sometimes, we have to humble ourselves to understand the truth of things. If we don't allow God to humble us, and keep on living in our own pride and arrogance, we will eventually be humbled and corrected. Some easier than others. I'm trying to work on my attitude too.

Remember, we can do all

 things through Christ who gives us strength.
