I sit in a coffee shop and see two men praying at the end of their visit and #I'm grateful
I chat with a relative stranger about the goodness of God and #I'm grateful
I go to our new church each morning to take on the pastor's challenge of increasing my prayer life and waging spiritual warfare and #I'm grateful
....
The list seems unending. I have always tried to foster an attitude of gratitude (as they say), but lately...
I am in awe of the many ways I'm being blessed. I think the ways aren't so new...I think my view is a bit new.
I feel revived...renewed...re------
I love the Lord...He heard my cry.
When we moved, he showed up. He placed me in a work circle where I could nurture and be poured out salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16).
We met friends ( a blessing in and of itself) and though we don't visit often, I have people to call and at least explore the option of coffee or wine (pick your poison :o)
Grace thrives at school, in swimming and now in violin. She gets that God loves her and she's thankful for her family. I'm abundantly grateful for all of that!
We joined a new church, and when I say God is showing himself to me in new and exciting ways, I mean it! YAY GOD!
We have family coming this week and even though I have to work, #I'm grateful for family and the opportunity to host and the means to host and the joy of what it means to have my daughter's only living grandparent with us on that day. I am grateful for all He has done for me!
"To God Be The Glory"...
How can I say thanks
for the things You have done for me?
Things so undeserved,
yet You gave to prove Your love for me;
the voices of a million angels
could not express my gratitude.
