Thankful Thursday

I think my fascination with blogging is wearing off. Either that or maybe I'm just getting lazy. Or busy. I'm not sure. One thing is for certain though. I should never use those excuses to for not thanking God.

1. Thankful that the guest room is almost put together for expected company.
2. Thankful for company.
3. Thankful for a beautiful weekend in Ocracoke, NC last weekend. (Blog to follow--I think)
4. Thankful for team work thanks to my honey too.
5. Thankful for kids who did great at their jobs in the wedding.
6. Thankful that my oldest seems to have survived the totaling of his truck with enough to pay it off.
7. Thankful that I look around and see too much instead of not enough.
8. Thankful for good books.
9. Thankful for the job I know God has waiting for my dear friend (you know who you are and you also know that HE holds you in the palm of His hand and is ready to bless you 100 fold).
10. Thankful for coffee. (Oh and for a certain playlist selection over here. Are you thankful for coffee too Mrs. Standford?) ;)

Lord I thank thee
for the things You've given me.

Thankful Thursday

What a week this has been. God has blessed me and my family beyond words. And oh the grace, HIS grace. So I thank YOU God...

1. for continuing to wow me every single day.
2. for bringing my son home safe--even after rolling his truck.
3. for never giving up on any single child of Your kingdom.
4. for giving me patience and kindness when I really would rather be screaming, crying and gnashing my teeth.
5. for wisdom.
6. for peace.
7. for hope.
8. for light bulbs that seem to suddenly go on. May they not flicker out or grow dim.
9. for the means to go on in a crazy mixed up world.
10. for listeners.

God with You every single thing is possible and true and good. Thank you for leading your children in ways beyond my imagination.
