Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. The history behind it, the meaning of it, and the simple fact that we have set aside a day for everyone to render unto God what is His—our gratitude and acknowledgment that all we have is His and is from Him.

But so often Thanksgiving just gets lost in the blur and the day rolls around without much mental and emotional taking-in of what could be such a poignant time. We scramble through Thanksgiving and then it is a mad rush through the Christmas season. But I want to try to change that in my own heart and mind.

So from now through the end of this year (I will likely have a couple of catch-up days in there), I will be sharing a daily photo of something that moves my heart and reminds me of God’s goodness.

Hence this silly and sweet photo…Oh my goodness, such a pile of butter colored fuzz, pink noses, and baby blue eyes! They were born a month ago. I lost four cats this summer in a freak incident, one of which was Ember, my first ever cat who had been my constant pal as a single gal living in my Grandpa’s log cabin. Well, it was perfect timing that a tom paid a visit to our place.

God provides in the most mundane and ordinary ways, for our most mundane and ordinary desires, answering our most mundane and ordinary sadnesses.
