Reflections on last night

(When it comes to Your light)
May my life be like a disco ball,
or bubble.

a trinity for the worst of me.

twenty four and,
in my long flower skirt,
tripod: head to living room floor, knees to elbows, soles to the ceiling --
i remember the first time my paradigms shifted.

then:
carpet draft sole, stilled to crickets and stars,
every type of grounded earth has to offer.

now:
a sunshine dance for the rest of this day, all Our days, songs of warm light and You

always
Your wind;
night breeze to
drafty Thanksgiving bedrooms to
right side up.

(If eternity is all of time, it includes right now.)

Thanksgiving

Feliz Dia de Accion de Gracias

Happy. Day. of. Action. of. Thank you.


So in español it really does mean 'Happy Thanksgiving', but manages to bring a little more flavor to the table with 'accion' -- that is, it's a day of showing our thankfulness. 

What does gratitude look like, displayed? 

How will you live your thanks?

Father God,
  There's no sound sweeter than a man's sincere heart singing praises to you.  It's an unassuming allure that takes me off guard but fits, as You're illuminated through the strength and humility of this song.  Please grace me to always enjoy this in life, should you will it.  Such goodness.

"He is everywhere.  There is no limit to God’s presence.  Because He is Spirit He is everywhere present.  He can’t get any nearer to me than He is right now.  He is not confined to a sanctuary, rock, or stone.  There is no place in the universe where I could run to escape from His presence.  He is here with me now.  As a believer, I get to enjoy fellowship with His presence.  He is not just a God who is far, but He is a God who is near.  He is aware and involved in everything I do today.  He knows my thoughts and my actions, and He is always here ready to hear from me.  He is the infinite, eternal God who makes Himself close to me today.  I am so thankful for His intimate presence in my life every day."
- Thanksgiving and the Attributes of God , Chris McMaster

Every choice is an opportunity for worship, praise ; a display of adoration.
