Thanksgiving. I think that this year is the first year that I have sat down to take the time to really appreciate what Thanksgiving means to me. I know what I am truly thankful for and I am trying to not take these things for granted anymore. I am trying to learn more about how this holiday came about and the history of it.
It is interesting how much struggle the pilgrims had to get over here. They went through an intense and long journey to get to the United States and they didn't even really know what to expect when they got here. They did it all for their religious freedom. That is amazing. I am thankful that I have the freedom to pray and praise the Lord wherever I may be in this country. I pray that my children too will always be able to do this!
