Sometimes, in the midst of hearing that I need to remember to be thankful for God and His Son and salvation and all things tied into this (and I am truly and regularly thankful for these things), I forget to be thankful for all the other things that make up life. And yet all of them are part of God's blessings.
Today I am thankful for:
- A note of love and encouragement from a friend
- The inclusion of humor in her note; that's also an important part of our friendship
- My wildflowers are booming; the current ones have tiny white flowers
- My tomatoes are also getting some flowers
- The sun is out today
- The time I had with good friends who are moving away next week
- A multitude of memories of good times with other friends and their children
- The children's artwork on my fridge and wall (aka, The Art Gallery)
- Getting Sunday School sorted out
- No pushback from the teachers who have been told about changes to their curriculum this year
- New Sunday School teachers and helpers
- Blueberry season
- Good music for remembering and worshiping God
- Having one of my favourite bacon and egg breakfasts
- A stack of new books for the church library
- Accomplishing some of today's goals before lunch
