T Stands for Time to Be Thankful!

 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving,

and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. Psalms 95:2

It is time to be Thankful as we are celebrating Thanksgiving in the USA this week!  We should always be thankful for all things according to the Bible in Thessalonians .  “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”  1 Thessalonians 5:18   Thanksgiving time reminds us to do that.

Today in honor of Thanksgiving I have some photos from my walks and an art journal spread, and of course an entry for our TSFT party over at Altered Book Lover. 





I am very thankful we finally got some color in our trees before our wind blew off all the leaves!

Next is my Art Journal spread for the Art Journal Journey challenge for November: A Moment in Time

I used this week’s Art journal sketch at ACOT sketch . I am submitting for the turkey Trot Challenge to Button up Your Overcoat on ACOT, to use buttons.  Finally using some button stash.  I also used some old stickers from my stash, from PhotoPlay, I think.  The stamped image is SU!  I am still journaling in an old K & Co. Smash Book.





I hoped you noticed my ticket to TSFT!

Thanks for stopping by.  Happy Thanksgiving, whenever you celebrate!

I like your gratitude list! I agree that we should always be thankful and not just limit it to one day in the year. I wonder whether gratitude gets lost in all the stress of preparing for the big dinner. I'm glad I don't have to do this, to be honest. It's just my husband and myself and certainly no turkey.
Your ticket for T is cute - I like your page. Happy T day and happy Thanksgiving.

You have some pretty autumn views Sharon, and it's a nice gratitude list. It's always good to think about what is really important isn't it? That's a fun Thanksgiving page with your fall and Thanksgiving images. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving holiday and of course T day too. hugs-Erika

Yres, I spotted the cups and saucers and also a teapot and mugs.
Your thankfulness list is great. Of course we always give thanks, not only at Thanksgiving. God is good!
What lovely autumn colours on that tree.
Happy T-Day

Wow the color of that tree is beautiful! Your journal pages are so cute too. I am going to try to have my kids make their own top 10 lists this weekend. They have to go to the dentist after school today, but then the Thanksgiving fun can begin. Hope you have a great holiday!
