God's Creatures

Happy Thanksgiving!

Dorothy Johnson

 
I’m the first one up this Thanksgiving morning. With 23 coming for a late lunch, I woke up early with turkey on my mind—get it in the oven in plenty of time so we’re not rushed in carving and making gravy. It takes lots of gravy for that many folks.
I was also thinking of all the good things in my life for which I am grateful.  My supportive husband, family and friends. I could fill the entire page.

But today, I want to express my gratitude to everyone who takes the time to read my ramblings and reflections. And special thanks to those who comment. You encourage me. Never underestimate the value of an encouraging word.

May your turkey and dressing be moist, your gravy supply ample, potatoes fluffy, and desserts yummy. Most of all, I hope, whatever the menu, that you feast in the company of friends and family, recognize how much you are blessed and thank God for them all.

Gotta go for now. It’s time to put that turkey in the oven! Talk to you later.
 
I love you! 


Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17

I'm a lover of God, mother of three, grandmother of eight, and a collector of friends. I like nothing better than talking, listening, laughing and eating with that crowd. My husband, Terry, and I feel blessed to wake up each day to a magnificent view of the Arkansas River. An amazing variety of creatures, from bobcats and coyotes to deer, bunnies and nutria, along with all sorts of birds roam the natural area behind our house. We also share our home with three silly kitties. I often find a lesson in what I see both indoors and out on any given day and usually find myself writing about it. I hope you'll join me in exploring the ways God speaks to us through His creation.
