Lisa Hendey on Giving Thanks Amidst Pain

"As the world around us swirls in a frenzy of turkeys to be brined and pies to be baked…

"As we struggle to finish work so that we can walk away for a few days to feast with loved ones…

"As we anticipate how snow will potentially wreak havoc on travel plans…

"As we pause, telling ourselves we have so very much for which we are grateful to God…

"…we grasp for grace that can be found only in God, through God and with God."

In a recent commentary, writer/editor Lisa M. Hendey reflected on giving thanks amidst the pain and suffering in our communities, in our nation, in our world.
