Thankful Thursday



"Count your blessings, name them one by one...


Count your many blessings see what God has done!"



This week I am thankful for...




  • a new start... finally resigning from a job that has been an un-Christian thorn in my side for four LONG years... Thank you God for leading me (ok, knocking me over the side of the head with a two by four) to finally do this!


  • God's provision during this time of transition


  • the beauty of each new day... and the chance to begin again each day


  • my growing garden...!!! (In need of weeding... on the agenda for this weekend- and beyond.)
  • for my little 8 yr old hero Ben's healing... a semi-easy recovery from a surgery that would leave most adults out of commission for weeks (but he's got such a great attitude that he's back in school just over a week later!) and for assurance and trust in God that his cancer will never ever again return
  • for God's protection and love
  • for God's protection and travel mercies for Fr Nigel as he travels to England, Scotland and Sweden over the next two weeks to bring God's healing love to a hurting world.
  • for mashed potatoes for breakfast.... YUM!
  • for REALLY warm weather -near 90 today!!
  • for incredible friends who support me in my time of transition and always
  • for being inducted as a FULL member of the International Order of St Luke this week... Fr Nigel says that we're not supposed to be proud, but very humbled by this honor... and I am humbled... but cant help but feel a bit proud of my accomplishment
  • for the healing hand of Christ and the knowledge that He does still heal today
  • and always for the incredible blessing of having God at the center of my heart, working each and every day for HIS Glory!!
