Thankful Thursday

 

This week I’ve been particularly aware of God’s provisions for my family and I’m thankful for all of them, big and small. I’m thankful for time to catch up on some jobs I’ve been neglecting. I’m also thankful for the energy to keep up with things during a few very busy days. 

I’m thankful for the help of my youngest son, who scraped the flaking paint of the railings on the back deck this afternoon, trimmed my May day tree, and is right now finishing up the mowing. Tomorrow, if it doesn’t look like rain—but I’m not holding my breath—he’ll paint the deck railings.

I’m thankful for open windows and fresh late summer air.  I’m thankful for my comfy bed and the anticipation of restorative sleep.

I’m thankful that God reigns. 

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