I work at the best company:

A simple prayer. A simple recognition.
Being rewarded for hard work with an extra half day off in December.
Flexible hours to meet our lifestyle needs.

Could they be any better to us? Z is a great place to work, and I need to remember to be grateful for that every single day.

Last night, as I was searching inside of myself, connecting my heart with my head, a friend gave me a great part of a verse: Psalm 73.28 "the nearness of God is my good" (NASB).
After dialoguing a little about that, I understood more of what it meant. It's a beautiful Psalm, and I will excerpt a portion below (from the TNIV). :)

Ps 73:25 Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
27 Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you.
28 But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds.

I want God to be my portion forever. May he be your portion this Thanksgiving, as you gather together and create community, whether with family or friends.

Make time to be still.
And rest in that stillness.
