I think it is a good thing to list the
things I am thankful for, to remind me that whatever happens out
there in the world, that here in my world life is pretty good!
I am thankful
-that our country had an election and
there were no riots or military takeovers. I am sure that the
endless second guessing will make me just nuts any day now. (in
case you were wondering – Barack Obama won because God has a plan,
and this is how we get to where God wants us. It is not any more
complicated than that. So now all the pundits can go home for
Christmas. Just an idea!)
- for a year with no major health
concerns for myself or hubby.
- that my kids are all doing well.
- that my grandmother turned 100 and I
got to help her celebrate!
- that my mother seems to be following
the same path and going strong.
- that we have a wonderful church and
friends from the church.
- that I have hot running water –
this will stay with me for awhile I think (smile)
- that the wood stove we had not tried
till it got cold has worked like a trooper.
- that we added another daughter in law
to our family this year (can grandchildren be in our future?)
There are many more things to be
thankful for, but I run out of time and energy, my memory needs to be
jogged, I lose focus and start thinking of other things.... but the big one is this
- that the Lord has blessed us and kept
us and made his face to shine upon us and given us peace!
