Thanksgiving...and I am so thankful...

"The power of the Good News is released in your life when you allow your weaknesses to showcase the awesome might and love of our Savior. Plan on doing that today."

This was in Joni's devotional this morning.  I pray that this happens in my situation. We do have a mighty, gracious Savior Who cares for our every need and hurt.  Every day, there is something encouraging and motivating for me.  So thankful for that.  Had a bit of a rough morning, just woke up stiff and sore, and achy...I know it is to be expected, but just gets discouraging when I want to do more than I can.  Kristen was so patient with me since, of course, I get teary-eyed easily, No surprise there! But, we made it to Shady Maple, got all our goodies for Thanksgiving and I couldn't have done it without her...the shopping cart was too heavy for me to push!

Thanksgiving...in the midst of so much going on, there is SO MUCH for which I am thankful.
Thankful for the following today:
  • Bobby is coming home today!  Yay!  Home will be complete!
  • Kristen's willing heart to serve me and love on me.
  • Megan's eagerness to help when she is home. And our planned time together tomorrow, even if it is a doctor's appointment!
  • A husband who is so kind.
  • Friends who are good cooks!
  • Encouragement from so many every day.
  • Continue to be amazed at how the Lord has indeed guided me every step of the way...and for the doctors who have cared for me.

Stitches out tomorrow...Oncologist next Monday...surgeon the next week...and so it goes!  We are getting very familiar with Rt. 401.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving...
Andi
