Cheesy Thanksgiving Insight

I normally try to be thankful all year long so I rarely place extra emphasis on the "deep meaning" of Thanksgiving. But I had an insightful moment on Saturday on the beach at Cape May. Yes, are you jealous? Delisa, my lovely bride, and I had an overnight stay at the Jersey shore since my parents came down and watched the kids for us. (Thanks Mom and Dad.)
We walked out on the bright wide beach for a little while to see what it was like. We were on an exploration trip not staying in one place too long. It was a gorgeous day - clear sky, warm sun, big ocean. You've been there, done that. As we were leaving the beach we passed a lady sitting in the sand with her shoes off facing the ocean and the sun beaming down. She had a grin on her face and was looking in our direction. I said to her, "Enjoying the warm sun?" She said with deep contentment, "It's beautiful!"
As we kept walking by I wondered, "Does she realize who is blessing her - who set this up just to pour out the peace and warmth she felt?" I prayed that she would. God's goodness was after her that day, whether she know Him or not. Whether she trusts in Him or not. God is good and He pours out His goodness on everyone so that they will realize He is there and that there is much to be grateful for. So be thankful and see His goodness. (So how cheesy was that?)
