Over the summer, my thankful posts might get a little repetitive. I might do a lot of thanking for sunshine, warm temperatures and other summer goodness. When you live in the Yukon, those things are a big deal, so I probably rejoice in the blessings of summer more than I would if I lived some place where there is less winter.
- I’m thankful that God chose to send sunshine and prefect temperatures today.
- The lawn is greening up nicely, too, and I’m thankful for that.
- I’m thankful that God made blooming trees in general, and especially that he gave me a big May Day tree about to bloom in the middle of my front yard.
- I’m thankful for a big garden spot that was already there when we bought the house. I’m thankful that I have the privilege to begin planting today.
- I’m thankful for my rhubarb patch, which will be ready to pick in about a week.
- While I’m at it, can I say that I’m thankful that the muddy season is over?
On Thursdays throughout this year, I plan to post a few thoughts of thanksgiving along with Kim at the Upward Call and others. Why don’t you participate by posting your thanksgiving each week, too? It’ll be and encouragement to you and to others, I promise.
