As I sit here on this thanksgiving day I can’t help but reflect on what God has taught me. The past year has been filled with extreme joy and extreme sadness. I’ve rejoiced and I’ve wept. I’ve cried with friends and celebrated with others. And I am thankful that through it all God has been faithful. He has been faithful even when I did not deserve it. As the Psalmist says in Psalm 86, “you O Lord are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. “when we do not understand what is happening in our lives, we can always trust in our faithful God. On this thanksgiving day, rejoice with me in a God who never fails and never gives up on us.
