Did Someone Say “Family Coloring Contest?”
The Bible is filled with wonderful Scriptures of thanksgiving. Celebrate the holidays with these FREE printables to keep even the busiest hands occupied. To add little bit of healthy competition to your Thanksgiving, host a coloring contest for young and old. Or, adorn your home or classroom with gratitude-themed masterpieces.
Get a Jump Start on Your Christmas Shopping
Most all the teen to adult family/friends on my list know that they will be receiving the Be Intentional Planner for Christmas. And they expect it, because they love the simplicity, practicality, and intentionality of the small and large planners. At only $15, make your shopping easy by ordering for those on your list!
Advent Starts Soon
Christmas is quickly approaching! Don’t let these days slip away without purpose. Guide your children or students to know Jesus through the Christmas story. Geared for children ages 3-12, the 41-page Advent Workbook provides fun activities, learning, and a Christmas countdown. You won’t believe how easy intentionality can be!

Happy Thanksgiving
As you get ready for Thanksgiving this week, I share with you a heartfelt poem penned by a dear woman in my life.
THANKSGIVING PRAYER
Lord, teach us we pray
to love and praise you every day;
For every blessing is from above
pure and sweet as a gentle dove.
Teach us always to do thy will
and when you speak to be still;
For You will lead and guide each day
if we will seek thy face and pray.
And may we at this time of year
realize your coming is near;
And spread the news throughout the land
and help to save our fellow man.
So thank you for the blood you shed
to give us life though you were dead;
But rose again to set men free
to live in peace for eternity.
By Shirley McDonald
I pray that you flourish this Thanksgiving!
