Gratitude

holy experience


Please forgive my absence, not only in sharing my gratitude list, but from blogging in general. The onset of spring has caused us to spend our time rediscovering the joys of God's newly budding creation!

135. My husband - oh, how I could go on about how thankful I am for him! What a man God has given me!

136. Birds singing beautiful springtime songs

137. The smell of fresh earth, awaiting planting

138. Warm sunshine

139. Answered prayers

140. God's strength to be patient while awaiting answers to prayer

141. His glory, expressed everywhere!

142. Snuggly dogs

143. Time with my children

144. Yummy food

145. Aprons

146. Laughter from babies, how it bubbles out of them and spills into the most precious sound

147. Playing peek-a-boo

148. Big hands, little hands, and hands in between sizes, to hold and kiss

149. Keeping in touch with friends and family

150. The blessings of friends, near and far

151. Peaceful slumber

152. The health of my family and myself

153. The inexpressible joy that comes from surrender, and serving Him whole-heartedly

154. Passover!

155. Being reduced to tears by His love

This is perfect timing - I was just struggling to plan a devotion for the staff, and had been thinking about the idea of thankfulness... and then you posted your list again and it inspired me. Thanks:-)
