Thankfulness in a Box

I am excited to share a fun lesson with you today that comes from Mary Kate Warner from Christianity Cove! If you haven’t checked out all of her resources, be sure to click on the link at the end of the page. Enjoy!!

Thanksgiving Household Object Lesson: Thankfulness in a Box

We often forget to give thanks and approach God only when we want something. You can help break kids of this habit by bringing in a box filled with opportunities to feel gratitude. That is…a box filled with anything at all! Follow our model or make up your own. You will put kids in a great position to feel thankful in ways they have never felt before.

Guest Blogger: Military Families Are Never Alone

I am SO excited to introduce this Guest Blogger to you!! If you haven’t found Patty’s blog yet, I urge you to take a quick peek over at Thoughts of an American Woman. She has graciously written an article for me to share with you all. I want her to share how the Lord is using her to minister to military families. As we go into these days of Christmas, please lift up a prayer and reach out to a military family that might be near you. Enjoy!! ~ FFS

I would like to thank the author of Future.Flying.Saucers for asking me to be her guest writer. This is the first time anyone has ever asked me to write an article, so it was a challenge and an honor. So thank you FFS for helping me take that first step out of my comfort zone. ~ Patty

Military families will always deal with the pain of separations.  Separations come in many forms in the military from saying goodbye to your home, your families, all that is familiar as you transfer from post to post, and to saying good-bye to your spouse and children through the long separation of deployments. Saying “good-bye” is routine and is part of the hardships and challenges of the military life.
