Blogoramians,

I understand some of you have had trouble posting comments. With the help of technosavvy Drew, we may have cleared some of the obstacles. Give it a whirl if you would like.

Tomorrow is the wonderful day of giving thanks. I love the opening words (and actually, all the rest of the words) of Lincoln's proclamation establishing Thanksgiving day,

"The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God. "

Way to go, Abe. Can you tell these words were written in the depths of the Civil War which was rending Lincoln's heart? Most amazing.

His steadfast love endures forever.

May our hearts be softened and sensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God.
