To me, Thanksgiving is the beginning of a very special holiday season. When I think about my childhood, this time of year sticks out to me more than any other. It’s Thanksgiving and Christmas that we get to see lots of family, play with new babies, and laugh together.
This Thanksgiving, Todd and I are thankful for our simple life. When I say “simple” Im not talking about Simple Suburban Living, although we are very thankful we get to share our life with others through this platform. Simple has nothing to do with anything we do, but rather why we do what we do. We have purpose now and that purpose drives everything we do. When you know your purpose, it makes decisions easier. Simple also doesn’t mean we move and get things done slowly. In fact, we get more done now because we are passionate about what we do! We are focused on the most important things instead of a bunch of things that don’t really matter.
So what really does matter? Jesus. Jesus, plain and simple. Everything else falls into place once you have accepted Jesus into your heart. You were made so God could love you. He sent Jesus so He could be with you forever. Now that we know that, our life has purpose. Does that mean we’re doing everything perfectly? No, we know that we are sinners in need of a savior and we are so very thankful God sent us one. It’s just that simple.
Friends, my hope for you is that you find your purpose, too. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need prayer or have any questions. My email is sslfamily5@gmail.com
Happy Thanksgiving!
Lisa - The SSL Family Mom
