Last night I visited some Mandean friends from Iran for a Friendsgiving dinner. The food was delicious as it always is when I visit my friends.

As much as I love the good food

the friendships are what make my visits so worth my time with them. There is laughter, friendship, shared stories, and more.
Which leads me to share about what I am thankful for this Thanksgiving.
First and most important, I am thankful for Jesus. I am thankful for his love that made him want to die for us and defeat death for us. He is the reason I am still alive in this world. He has blessed me with so many things.
I am thankful for my friends from many countries and the opportunities I have to share the love of Jesus with them. My life is enriched because of experiencing so many cultures.
I am thankful for my friends who helped me make it through a difficult summer in many ways.
I am thankful for my home church and their support in prayer, encouragement, and more.
I am thankful for my students and the classes I teach. They give me purpose. I hope to teach until the day the Lord takes me home to heaven.
I am thankful for the teachers and staff at the elementary school where I teach my morning class. Their dedication to make a difference in the lives of children living in adverse circumstances inspires me every day.
I also wish to thank my readers especially those who follow my blog, comment on and like my posts. I am thankful for the bloggers I follow who give me interesting posts to read.
I want to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving. May your day be filled with family, friendship, and love. May you experience the love of Jesus in your life.
Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you for Reading
God Bless
