It's Thursday evening
Time for a pause to consider the blessings I've experienced recently
I am thankful for:
God's faithfulness
Good books that challenge my thinking
Difficult times that drive me to my knees
Tears of joy
My loving and supportive wife who knows how to encourage right responses in me
a God who hears and responds when we call on Him
music that lifts me spirits by pointing me toward God
phone calls and Skype calls with my kids
God's word and the way He speaks to me through it
fresh produce from our tiny vegetable patch
God's invitation to come to Him when we are weary
God's Spirit who indwells us
beautiful sunsets
times of refreshment in my Adirondack chair
God's protection-- seen a lot of accidents or near misses lately--grateful I haven't been involved
God's mercies that are new every morning
friends who reach out across the country with words of encouragement
grace and truth
