Thanksgiving 2004

Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivers him out of them all.

I went to Peterborough to visit my sister and her family and to celebrate Thanksgiving.

I took my little dog Sam with me to give him a break from life with Bonny the Sheltie.
It's been a challenge these last few weeks for both Sam and myself , getting adjusted.

Anyway, I missed being with my children and grandchildren. This is the first year ever I have not had a Thanksgiving meal with my family.

Letting go of what lies behind and pressing forward into the One who has called me. Not as easy as it sounds at times...but He is Faithful and worth everything.
