In the tinkling of the chimes…

In the tinkling of the chimes…

by Jennifer Frisbie | Dec 16, 2017 | Faith, His Plan, Learning as I go

Growing up I could never understand the fascination behind having wind chimes. To me, they were noisy, unusual, and I always thought of them as something appealing to the over 65. But when we moved into our first home, starting a chapter as husband and wife, the...

Half of us in pjs, half of us in clothes. Half of us with iced tea...the other half with sparkling juice. One third of us don’t even appear in the picture and this is the first time in a long time I’ve decorated for Christmas prior to the fourth Thursday in November. Still, we are all here and all immensely thankful, even as we miss those who are normally with us. Happy Thanksgiving, friends. May your day be filled with immeasurably more than all you can ask or imagine. #frisbiefamilysix #1000gifts

Ever taken one of those accidental shots of your feet while you’re contemplating an entirely different picture? This was one of those shots. Standing between the kitchen and dining room, I couldn’t help but get lost in mental wandering as I thought of what a different day it would’ve been had I disobeyed His plan. As I stood there, reminiscing of Thanksgivings past, the one that sticks in my mind the most occurred six years ago. It was then that God spoke into my heart and I felt the heaviness of His request. Just weeks before the holiday, I was stranded in the airport waiting on another delayed flight. I barely remember the wait because the entire world around me was blocked out as I heard His audible voice for the second time in my life. And it scared me. It was a difficult request to obey, even given the clarity in what I’d heard, but five months later as the plan began to unfold I agreed with my hesitant yes. I’ve never been more grateful for that yes than I am today. Friends, may you stop and stand for a moment, pondering what you’re thankful for today, past and present, be them things, people or circumstance, and remember the One who sends these gifts to us to begin with. And if that doesn’t set your mind in motion try this: If you had to begin tomorrow with only what you’re thankful for today, what would that be? Perspective. #thissideofgrace

So it begins. Turkey rub and cranberry sauce are complete. It’s only the six of us this year (😢), but we are going to eat well. #frisbiefamilysix
