For my 40th birthday, my friend Julia gave me a lovely mug that is laced at the rim with these words: May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him…
The mug has become my favorite, its concave shape perfectly fits within my hands, warming them on cold winter mornings and holding the exact amount of coffee.
With each sip I take, I delight in the rich taste of my drink and in the memories the mug brings of friendship and laughter; the words inscribed on it fill my heart with gratitude and joy.
On this Thanksgiving week, I’d like to share with you:
· My gratitude, for friends and family and the joy they bring… even when things get messy (thank you Jodi, for making sense of it all!)
· My hope, that we can all partake of the joy a grateful heart can bring.
· My delight, in finding peace beyond all understanding through Jesus, the hope of glory!
I am thankful for each and every one of you, and pray that on this very special week and Season your heart will overflow with hope, joy and peace, in Jesus.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Ana
