A Blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!



It is literally true, as the thankless say, that they have nothing to be thankful for. He who sits by the fire, thankless for the fire, is just as if he had no fire. Nothing is possessed save in appreciation, of which thankfulness is the indispensable ingredient. But a thankful heart hath a continual feast.” –W.J. Cameron



Thanks to Doug for the picture and the quote.

Update from the Lectionary:


Then Jesus said to them, ‘Very truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.’ They said to him, ‘Sir, give us this bread always.’

Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.


John 6:32-35

    PhotoShop? I don't know. Maybe it's for real.

  4. I love the Cameron quote. For so long I was without a fire. One of the reasons I'm thankful for friends - and I include all of you in that - is that I am finally warm.
