For Love of Words

Thankful Thursday

Thankful Thursday

5 May

It has not been the easiest of weeks. But that’s ok, because sometimes the greatest growth can come out of the tough times.

Today, I am thankful for the lessons that I’m learning. I am thankful that my heavenly Father is a patient teacher.

I am also thankful for:

  • The encouragement and prayers of friends online and nearby
  • The fact that I can call my mom at 2:00am
  • A daughter snuggled up next to me
  • A new doula client
  • Long phone conversations with my husband
  • Samples at Sam’s Club (why, oh why do I end up shopping when I’m hungry?!)
  • Netflix online tv episodes (been watching “Jericho”)
  • String cheese and baby carrots–best quick lunch there is
  • Reliable people
  • Seeing my oldest start on a room cleaning project–hers! GASP!
  • Worship songs I can sing when I can’t sleep
  • Beautiful sunsets (my daughter took this)

One of the things that I am learning this week is that thankfulness is a weapon against worry. Someone once told me that worry and worship cannot coexist within a person. I’m finding that to be true.

I hope you can find things, large and small, to be thankful for today.
