Happy Thanksgiving

Whew, what a year indeed.
A year of severe pruning. 
In the end my blessings were there all along.
Love of family and friends.
And the casting of crowns.
Amen.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Revelations 4:4-10

4.Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, 
and seated on them were twenty-four elders. 
They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads.  
5 From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. 
Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. 
These are the seven spirits of God.  
6 Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, 
clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, 
were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back.  
7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, 
the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle. 
 8 Each of the four living creatures had six wings 
and was covered with eyes all around, even under his wings. 
Day and night they never stop saying: 
"HOLY, HOLY, HOLY IS THE Lord GOD ALMIGHTY, 
WHO WAS, AND IS, AND IS TO COME."  
9 Whenever the living creatures give glory, 
honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne 
and who lives for ever and ever, 10 the 
twenty-four elders fall down before him 
who sits on the throne, and worship him 
who lives for ever and ever. 
They lay their crowns before the throne and say.
