A Thankful Heart


Catching up on some memories via the blog today.



A thankful heart

Prepares the way
For You, my God
A thankful heart
Prepares the way
For You, my God
Come fall on us
We fall on You
A thankful heart
Will be our rhythm
Come fall on us
We fall on You
A thankful heart
Will be our song



This song, "Come Fall on Us" has been echoing in my heart recently. It started trickling in as I reflected on the holiday season. Creating memories of what will probably be our last of holidays in this home.

Thanksgiving with close family nearby and new friends. Thankful for God's abundance of provision, love, and hope in our lives -seen through the people nearest and dearest to our hearts. 



Little hand turkeys decorating napkin rings...

Before the consuming of deliciousness...








I love how the Hubs and I have the same pose of
 food prep concentration going on here.

 


All of the guys.

Porter kids got the green memo.

A pure gift of sweetness - the toddler and the knitted friend.










And so, the song echoes back...


A thankful heart

Prepares the way
For You, my God
A thankful heart
Prepares the way
For You, my God
Come fall on us
We fall on You
A thankful heart
Will be our rhythm
Come fall on us
We fall on You
A thankful heart
Will be our song

Preparing my heart for more thankfulness in 2013. I am joining like so many others have done in remembering 3 things that I am thankful for each day. Big or small. Hoping to expand my heart in more ways than one - preparing the way for direction and voice from the one above. Building up my strength and hope to fight things that try to break in - with gratitude. 

Hoping you are surrounded by the same.
