Thursday is my most favorite day of the week! This week I am particularly thankful for:
1. A growing relationship with my God that challenges me to my very core.
2. A husband who is the closest thing to a saint I know, who loves me as I am despite who I am.
3. Healthy children and good medical care when they are facing ill health.
4. Friends who not only pray for me, but help me physically and mentally get things done, and help me laugh when I do silly things and keep God’s perspectives along the way
5. I am so thankful for Spring bloomings and beautiful days and protection when the storms come.
6. I am thankful we live in an age where you can become friends with someone you’ve never met and yet enjoy knowing them and interacting with them via computers. (Not to mention work virtually with clients, co workers, and friends….She’s So There works in 4 states with our team virtually!)
7. I am thankful for our new church home and family, when a girl lives 400 miles from where she grew up and knew everyone, its a comfort to have local “family” again.
8. I am thankful for a husband who works, allows me to pursue our dreams and harder on ministry goals than financial ones….thankful for the many many friends who are partnering with us to help rebuild families.
9. I am thankful for squishy mud….and for the ability to enjoy squishing in it barefoot this morning when I went out to cut some roses for our table….
10. I am thankful for the choice each day to publically and privately acknowledge our Lord and God and Jesus as Savior without fear of attack, punishment, or abuse.
God is good!
P.S. There’s a new stepmum post up here
