Thankful Thursday

DateFriday, September 20, 2013 at 12:02AM

…technically it’s Thankful Day After Thursday, but I’m still living my Thursday.

I’m thankful

  • for eyes to see the beauty around me and ears to hear my son playing his guitar as I write.
  • for this conversation with my almost two-year-old granddaughter while we watched a nature clip on TV: Grandma: “Look! A fish.” Granddaughter: “No, dolphin!” (I knew that, but I was dumbing things down for her. Big mistake.) I’m thankful all my grandchildren live by me so I can have many moments like this. (Although I secretly wish I could keep them at the toddler stage forever.)
  • that God sustained and enabled me through this hunker-down, nose-to-the-grindstone week. 
  • for the rain I’ll hear as I sleep.
  • for the new covenant. And that I live in the “but now” era.
  • for the promise that I will “ever be with the Lord.
