Thankful Thursday

"Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done. Sing to Him, sing praise to Him; tell of all His wonderful acts." Psalm 105:1

Today I am giving thanks for:

• Times of refreshing that come from spending time with my Lord and Savior...
• The refreshing rain that has fallen and hopefully washed lots of the pollen away...
• The treat of being able to sleep in this morning on a rainy day! What a blessing that was!
• The peace that fills my house right now! Praise and worship music is playing, the kids are playing quietly and happily, and I am thoroughly enjoying it!
• The fact that my children take pride in helping me clean the house... I just looked down in the den (we have a loft area upstairs) and David is diligently cleaning the windows on the door in our kitchen... what a sweetie he is!
• Unexpected hugs and kisses from my children...
• The fact that my husband has been able to come home early from work almost every night this week!
• The wonderful way my husband loves me, takes care of me, and helps me...
• The sound of my children singing when they do not know I am listening...
• For this life, this family, and this day that the Lord has so graciously given me. This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!!

What are you thankful for today? I really would encourage you to take the time to stop and think about what you have to be thankful for. This has become one of my favorite posts of the week to do, all because it causes me to stop and reflect on the goodness of the Lord in my life and all the many blessings, big and little, that I have to be thankful for. So stop and take the time to make your own thankful list!
