Happy Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at my mother's house and a crazy amount of food. We could have feed an army!! We got to visit with my father's side of the family that we do not get to see that often. It was their first time to meet Anna Li.

Anna Li's favorite food was the mac n' cheese, ham, turkey, and dressing. She was so full she had to turn down all of the wonderful desserts!!!

After all that eating we had no choice but to go for a walk in the woods!!

Anna Li said, "I had a fun day. I love Thanksgiving!"

Isaiah 58:10:11

After getting the medical report on Yang Li we were really upset and did not know what to do. I was at work and struggling to get through the day when a customer came in with a change order. She had it wrote on a note pad and there was a verse at the bottom and this is what it said:

if you pour yourself out to the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday.

And the Lord will guide you continually...

That was exactly what I needed to hear. The lady had no idea how much her change order changed my day!!

Words to Live By

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:11-13 NIV

The steps of man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way;

though he fall, he shall not be case headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand.

Psalm 37:23-24 ESV

The heart of man plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps.

Proverbs 16:9 ESV

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;

I will counsel you with my eye upon you.

Psalm 32:8 ESV

But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,whose confidence is in him.

He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”

Jeremiah 17:7-8 NIV

Trust in the Lord and do good;dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

Delight yourself in the Lordand he will give you the desires of your heart.

Psalm 37:4 NIV
