...for the food we have to eat. (Even if it does get on the dog at times. Ahem.)
...for frilly swimsuits and the promise of warmer weather around the bend (I hope!)
...for the bookUnglued: Making Wise Choices in the Midst of Raw Emotions
which I just finished reading. All glory to You God for imperfect progress! ...for toddlers who put words together. Those first sentences are such a welcome and fun surprise when they happen!
...for my friend Joanna and her ideas. Just the other day, Ana told me that she would like to try to make this doll bed. That's perfect because I never know what to do with those clementine crates!
...for so many wonderful readers who visit, share, and bring joy to my heart each week. This growing community is a wonderful place to be.
...for new ideas- now just to get DOING.
...for so many blessings to be thankful for. I love telling you the list when I'm feeling sorry for myself.
...for my friend Hannah and her beautiful encouragement.
...for your Son who we celebrate every day. It's fun to share the joy of the Passover, the Cross, and the Resurrection with the girls.
Oh, death, where is your sting?
Oh, hell, where is your victory?
Oh, Church, come stand in the light!
Our God is not dead
Hes alive, He's alive!
Reader, what are you thankful for today?
Such a wonderful lists of things to be Thankful for.
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I am thankful for you as well!
ReplyDeleteWhat a dear you are! I LOVE reading your thankfulness lists but I was so surprised to see my name being mentioned (!?!?!) How thankful I am for YOU Becki! It's encouraging to have a blogging buddy as well. :) And this part..."for so many blessings to be thankful for. I love telling you the list when I'm feeling sorry for myself."
ReplyDeleteAmen, isn't that the truth? The act of thanks-giving always leads to greater contentment. Love you! ~Joanna
PS. where are you guys doing swim lessons? Our gymnastics are ending in 2 weeks, and I wanted to do a round of lessons before summer hits and we'll be living at the pool!
ReplyDeleteI simply love your thankful list! And I LOVE that song!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a blessed day!
What a lovely post and a great list of reasons to be thankful. And I don't mind the doggy linkup at all :)
