In 2013, the iconic Norman Rockwell painting “Saying Grace” sold for $46 million dollars. “Saying Grace” originally appeared on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post’s 1951 Thanksgiving issue, and soon became one of Rockwell’s most beloved works.
Ifeel like Charlie Brown when Lucy pulls the football away r ight before he tries to kick it. I know the battle is spiritual just like Ephesians 6:12 tells me it is. It’s like there is a dark cloud hanging over me or at minimum following me around. It started on Oct. 20, the day I had a good friend pass away and then on Nov. 18 I had another friend die. That always hurts.
This week is one of the most anticipated holidays on the American Calendar – Thanksgiving. Celebrated throughout the world, mostly as a day to rejoice in the harvest and reflect on the blessing of the preceding year, it’s a time to give thanks for all we have and those we share our lives with. It’s also a time to share our blessings with those around us who struggle.
