…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.
