It's that time of year again... Time for my annual Thanksgiving rant about the weather. These posts are pretty ironic, considering the occasion, but maybe this one will be a breath of fresh air.
As I looked back and read my Thanksgiving posts from last year and two years ago, I noted two improvements:
1. It's not snowing this time around. I like that. Instead of snow, we're experiencing Cleveland's version of "sunny" and about 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius). And this makes me happy, as long as I don't acknowledge my plummeting standards.
End: weather.
And noooow some introspection...
2. Judging by those old posts, I feel more thankful this year... Thankful that I'm not spending this winter in freezing, grey Cleveland. Thankful for a loving, supportive, and fun family. Thankful for friends that are worth crossing state lines for on a weekly basis...friends whom I will miss dearly during our three month separation. And last but definitely not least, I'm thankful that this life is just a shadow of what's to come for those who know and truly believe in Jesus Christ. Nothing compares to that...that hope, that relationship, that Savior. Yet I often find myself distracted from what really matters......that.
