I’m thankful for the lessons I’ve been taught from experience. I’m a wiser person than I used to be (at least in a few ways) and it’s because God has taught me through my circumstances, trials, and mistakes over the years. 

I’m thankful that Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. 

I’m thankful for the lives of faithful servants of Jesus, and for one man’s life in particular. I’m thankful that I have the opportunity to sing with my church choir at his memorial service on Saturday. 

I’m thankful for good books I can order inexpensively. I’ve got several I’m reading and a couple in the mail.

I’m thankful that so many of the seeds in the garden have sprouted. I’m thankful my garden vegies are one of the ways God provides for me.

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