A Thanksgiving Table . . .

My daughter is very busy making all her plans and preparations for our family Thanksgiving Holiday.  She will have a lovely table all prepared with nice linens and of course handmade place cards with each of our names.  She will have beautiful centerpieces of fresh flowers and candles.  The kitchen island will be loaded down with the most delicious foods and her homemade pies are just out of this world!  We will have more to eat than what we can possibly consume!  So much to be thankful for.

                                                                       Psalm 23:5-6
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.  

A true Thanksgiving Table is set for only two.  The Lord has prepared a table for each of us and He waits daily for us to come and dine with Him.  When we accept His invitation, we will find our name inscribed upon His hand.  The fragrance of His love and the light He brings to our soul, is truly captivating!  His daily bread is more than what we can possibly consume and we understand that He has blessed abundantly above all that we could ever fully express our thankfulness for.   

                                                                       Morning Prayer
Dear Lord,
     I pray that each of us will accept Your invitation to sit with You at Your Thanksgiving Table.  We have so much to thank You for . . .   Amen ~
