From the mouths of... er um.. Cucumbers?

Thanksgiving is just around the corner for those folks in the United States. A day traditionally filled with family and with Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, pumpkin pie, cranberries, and probably some type of green bean casserole. Of course most would tie this holiday to some type of harvest season feast with the Pilgrims and the Indians in early settlement times.

Rather than talking about that, I'd rather share a verse of two from a Kids CD we have that my sons and I were listening and singing along with today. Its from the Big Idea studio's, the famous purveyors of our kids favorite.. Veggie Tales. This song is brought to you by Junior Asparagus its called "I am a Promise"

I Am a Promise (by Bill & Gloria Gaither)

I am a Promise
I am a possibility
I am a Promise with a capitol "p"
I am a great big bundle of potentiality
And I am learning to hear God's voice
And I am trying to make the right choices
I'm a promise to be anything He wants me to be...

This Thanksgiving, like many of you I'll be giving thanks for family, and health. But I will also be giving thanks for the day, and hoping for many many more days in hopes to fulfill the "Promise" God wants for me, and want me to be. Perhaps if all of us (myself included) lived up to our promise just a little bit more, we could bring about our own "bailout package". A bailout package to bring real change to the American people.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours
Peace
