Thanksgiving past, now, and future

Terry and her daughter Tammy prepare the Thanksgiving meal in 2008When I was a kid, my family always spent the Thanksgiving holiday at my Nana’s and Pop-Pop’s house. The kitchen smelled yummy as my grandmother and great-grandmother prepared the feast. Relatives gathered and shared the latest news from church or the neighborhood (stories that completely bored me, but I certainly loved the sound of their conversations).

The dining room table that we sat around is now in my home. It’s been many years since it held a crowd. This year it’s piled with paperwork dealing with my husband’s passing and my mother’s application for Medicaid, as well as architectural drawings of the new church I’m helping to build. This Thanksgiving is also what would have been Ralph’s and my 49th wedding anniversary.

A month ago, I had to start giving my house a new beginning — founded in the damage caused by Hurricane Milton. There’s still a lot to be done, and I’m soooo ready to move on but these repairs are dragging out. (Lord Jesus, be my patience!)

In the restoration of my house and the loss of my husband lies the seed of a new mission. My house itself is being called to this mission. Keep reading this newsletter to find out what the mission is, when it will start, and how. And please back me up in prayer.

Today’s lesson: There’s always a reason to give thanks to God. Even in the midst of loss and destruction.
