This holiday always gets me to stop and think about all that we have, all that our kids have, all that our families have. Every single time I begin to think and evaluate I come to one conclusion, give, give, give. I am not sure if I can even relay my feeling, but it’s a feeling of gratitude, it’s knowing that I did not deserve all that I have and yet God granted me my wishes and oh so much more. So, this year instead of just feeling like I want to give, I put a plan of “Acts of Kindness” for the next month. I will share some of the ways we will be serving our neighbors, church and just complete strangers. I want to make sure that my children understand the gift of giving, more so than receiving. It’s when we give , we feel most rewarded, not when we receive. Christ selfless giving and laying His life for us on the cross, does not measure to what we can give, but we can definitely pass on the gift of giving. Happy Thanksgiving!
