Thankful Thursday

Such a busy day and so much for which to be thankful! I’ve spent time this week spring cleaning my bedroom. I’ve gone through everything and collected a couple of bags of things to donate to the Salvation Army and a couple of bags to go to the dump. I’ve washed walls and curtains and bedding. I’ve rearranged things. I’m thankful that I have the energy to work and that the results of my labour are so satisfying.

I’m thankful for the new sermons I listened to while I was working. I’m thankful that I have access to resources like that, and I’m thankful for the faithful men who preached the sermons.

I’m thankful for sunshine and blue skies and spring temperatures and an invigorating afternoon walk. I’m thankful for family in and out all day long. My days are never boring and for that, I am thankful.

I’m thankful that the day is nearly done and that I can rest.

I’m thankful that God is a talking God so that we can know him.

Throughout this year I’m planning to post a few thoughts of thanksgiving each Thursday along with Kim at the Upward Call and others.

I really liked the last two best; the one by Mike Bullmore and the one by D.A. Carson. The roundtable discussion about universalism was good, too.
