I’m thankful that I can trust God in everything. I’m thankful that when things things go wrong, nothing is really out of place in his plan, and he is working in everything to conform me to the image of his Son. I’m thankful that certain annoying circumstances have given me a glimpe of my sin of pride, which is a type of idolatry, isn’t it?
I’m thankful for my cell phone, and for how much simpler it makes things when the car breaks down on the way to town.
I’m thankful for some unscheduled time that I can use to catch up on projects around the house.
Throughout this year I’m planning to post a few thoughts of thanksgiving each Thursday along with Kim at the Upward Call and others.
