Hope you had a beautiful Thanksgiving Day… mine did not turn out the way I expected, as some family were sick. So we postponed a few days. At first I felt sad and disappointed, but as the day went on, I discovered that opportunities opened up: deeper connection to those I did see, time to myself in the studio, so rare, and the chance to sit with myself and explore the depths of gratitude. In the fullness of love, I would like to share my thanksgiving prayer with you ~ Jennifer
And as I settle into my heart, I ask my Higher Self and my Guides to come closer, to take my hand, pat me on the back, caress my cheeks, smooth my hair, kiss my brow. Thank you all. Thank you, my Guides, for all that you do for me. Thank you to the ones who I know intimately and to the ones who are still a little unknown to me. Thank you for all who assist me in this human life, keeping me out of danger, alerting me to my opportunities, helping me settle into the emotions that I am feeling in any given time, helping me to wring the truth, the beauty and the lesson from each experience.
I AM deeply grateful to Mama and Papa for creating me in the first place. And for giving me the power to create also my life as it comes to me. I’m grateful for understanding that it is a movie that I am projecting, that it is myself that is outside of me and the universe that is within. Somehow we are backwards in our thinking, thinking we are nothing within and that what is outside is everything.
Oh, I know this is a conundrum and difficult to understand, but I am beginning to glimpse this truth: All that I Am and all that I’ll ever Be is within me, there in the wholeness, there in the stillness and there in the embrace of Mother/Father/God.
There is a perpetual hug going on, an infinite embrace. It is a very loose embrace, there is much movement afforded, but we are all truly connected by love. And what is that but an embrace?
I wish to thank all of my brothers and sisters on the planet, those I don’t know and those that I do, those whose faces I know, and those who are new to me, those who are dear to me and those who are very close. Thank you for the friendship, the love, the support and encouragement. Thank you for the laughs and thank you for the good times and the explorations, thanks for all of your creativity and your amazing minds. Thank you for leading the way. Thank you for following. Thank you for walking with me, hand in hand,.
Bless this beautiful physical planet, bless the light emanating from it and the love imbued in every cell, every grain of sand, every needle on every pine tree, every tiny insect and every beautiful butterfly, every humming bird and every albatross, every little mouse and every amazing elephant, the land animals, the mammals in the sea and all the beautiful fish and the creatures who live in water, especially the wonderful octopus. Thank you all for sharing this planet with me.
Thank you all for being in this physical realm, this amazing physical adventure, this 3D/ 4D/ 5D movie, this whole created reality. Together with our amazing, amazing Divine Parents, all who have come before and all who will follow, thank you for this amazing life in this amazing place. I do so love this world. I do so love Mother Earth in all her glory. Thank you, Mother, for sustaining us.
Thank you to my beloved teachers, the Ascended Masters, the Archangels, and all who have encouraged me on the path to my joy. I do now claim Joy. I claim the giggles, I claim the smiles, I claim the heartwarming glances. I claim the joy of driving down the road and seeing beauty left and right. I claim the joy of waking each morning to the light streaming into my home. I claim the joy of hearth and home, of affection, kindness and companionship.
I know the joy of extended family, those born into the same family as me. I feel the joy of those born to me, and the joy of those born to those born to me, so precious, so precious. I carry the joy of those who came before, my parents, my aunts and uncles, grandparents and ancestors. Thank you.
Because of everyone and everything, I am who I am today, I am in the joyous moment of this Now, this gratitude prayer. Thank you. Thank you All.
Thank you to each one of you who have read this, each one of you who will, each one of you who extends your love to meet mine, that together we may weave a more wonderful world.
Thank you to my team, my old friends, my new friends, to all who lend their hearts to the common good and the blessing of friendship. I am deeply grateful, sweetly grateful, blessedly grateful, ever grateful for what is now and all that is to be.
May we go forth in heart, may we go forth hand in hand, walking together, expanding our love, expanding our light, lifting up, embracing, consoling and inspiring.
May we give back all that we have been given and keep the ripples going. May it be so, with so much love, love upon love, wave upon wave, and breath upon breath. Thanksbeing.

This is Jeshua.
I will begin by saying I am delighted to wish you all a most happy day of giving thanks. It is an occasion which it would do well to celebrate on a regular basis, as the enjoyment is felt even in these realms and the gratitude is in a very high vibration which connects you all deeply with one another, but even more importantly – and perhaps less obvious to you – your gratitude connects you to your own creator powers.
By aligning with the acknowledging of receiving the blessings which you have chosen, you impel the energy of creation to bring you additional blessings, which of course the Universe is most happy to do. So you see the energy is multiplied and charged with movement to bring into manifestation your desires, which, at this season, are the joys of family and friends, of a home-coming of acceptance and good will – essentially you recreate on Earth the welcome and the loving environment always offered to you in these realms when you visit in your dreams.
Abundance of all kinds, an honoring of the gifts of Mother Earth and a reveling in the joys of family – that is a reflection of the blessings always available to you in the loving home of our Father and Mother. Do not be discouraged at any small ways in which your earthly celebration falls short of that which you long for—it is the nature of your human adventure to disappoint, because of the unreal expectations you put upon it. Most in your world are just beginning to wake up to their true loving nature, and so this year for the first time on your planet since the earliest days in spiritual form, you will be capable of expressing to one another a much greater degree of true appreciation for the blessing each one is, in your social contexts.
There will be a surge of pleasure and peaceful joy rising from many, many dwellings on your Thanksgiving Day that will be generating a palpable energy field which we in our realm can move in various ways to envelope even the most hard-hearted ones, softening their despair and gently opening for them a hope that indeed there may be a way forward our of their pain and isolation.
And so, you see, dear one, that this day of which you are all so fond may be extended to all of you – every single one – energetically bringing the benefit of peace and warmth and inclusivity in the greater humanity. Many now, in addition, are waking up to the fact that it is imperative that ALL be included, that you are one human family, and until all are loved and all are fed – your purpose on earth is not complete.
(Thank you Jeshua, for your blessings on this occasion.)
All love to you.
