Rejoice Always

I’ve opted to skip Thanksgiving at home in order to spend two weeks during Christmas, which I am very much looking forward to.

But it was a good Turkey Day, regardless. A few girls from the ranch and I had dinner at the home of a friend of ours, someone who moved to Oregon from Chicago partly because of the ranch. It was a feast, not only for our taste buds and stomachs, but also in relationship. It is so good to cultivate friendships and then come together to celebrate them.

To sit around a beautiful and bountiful table, sipping on wine, sharing of who we are – it feels so good to relax and rejoice in the small things that we have to be thankful for.

Rejoice always, pray consistently, and be thankful in all circumstances.
