Thanksgiving is, by far, my favorite holiday. Family, Food & Football. Hard to beat that trio. I'm ready for a day off too. I'm pretty exhausted for some reason. I guess I've been doing more pastoral visitation than usual. Plus, I played about an hours worth of basketball tonight after I led the Thanksgiving Eve service. Speaking of that service, I kept my tradition (this was year #3) of reading the 'sermon on the mount' straight through without commentary/interuption. I like this tradition. It takes about 13 minutes. I just switch translations each year (NKJV, NIV, NLT). I hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving (or, if you are in Canada, a happy Thursday). God bless.
VERSE OF THE DAY

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday too...at the core of it, the whole day is about appreciating your family, your food, football :), and what you have. There are no expectations like presents. It just seems ideal to me. I hope yours went well! I was able to go home and have Thanksgiving lunch with my dad/his wife/matt. It was very special. And I brought back a lot of food, so I'm set for at least a week! :) My family is amazing.
