A Blessed Thanksgiving to You All!

The Riddlebargers will celebrate Thanksgiving at home this year. After attending Christ Reformed's annual Thanksgiving Service, my son Dave and his family will be joining us for a traditional Thanksgiving fare.

Lord willing, it will be a "Nutribullet free" weekend of ham, turkey, dressing, pie, leftovers (ham sandwiches), and a massive tryptophan coma.  But it is back to the Nutribullet on Monday.

We have so much for which to be thankful! Retirement has been productive—the Blessed Hope Podcast and the Riddleblog keep me plenty busy. My wife and I are well. He has given her the grace to stand me for forty-six years. Both of our sons and their families are members of solid PCA congregations, and we have four wonderful grandchildren. Yup, much for which to be thankful!  

Micki and I wish you and yours a blessed Thanksgiving!  As the Psalmist reminds us (Psalm 107:1-9) . . . 

1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!

2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble

3 and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.

4 Some wandered in desert wastes, finding no way to a city to dwell in;

5 hungry and thirsty,their soul fainted within them.

6 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

7 He led them by a straight way till they reached a city to dwell in.

8 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!

9 For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.
