Today I am thankful for...
1. The Bible; the beginning of a new year reading
chronologically.
2. My salvation. One of my favourite hymns is And Can it
Be? Because I’m so amazed that God would save me and give me an interest in
spiritual things.
3. The help I get from my chiropractor every month.
4. The pleasure of a massage. It doesn’t help a lot, but it
feels good at the time.
5. Pain relief at the pain clinic.
6. Our hot tub especially on a very cold day.
7. Freedom to worship…so far.
8. The opportunity to see my grandchildren once a week.
Today my granddaughter climbed to the top of the stairs on her own. We had
forgotten to put the gate at the bottom and suddenly she was at the top smiling
down on us. This girl is fearless.
9. Commentaries from saints long ago. This year I’m using
Matthew Henry’s commentary as a companion to my Bible reading.
10. My mom, who cleaned out my bathroom cupboard. I know it
hasn’t been done since I got sick because there were still quite a few scented
products, which I can’t use anymore.
11. A steady paycheque/stable work for my husband/good
benefits.
12. Our daughter paid off her student loan in full!
13. Women’s ministry team, four women who help me.
14. Our Pastor’s faithful, bold preaching.
15. A new term teaching my grandson nursery school, once a
week.
16. A new women’s Bible study on Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther.
17. Eggs. I love eggs.
18. Shopping for some new clothes, with my daughter’s help.
19. My husband, who is beginning seminary courses at Toronto
Baptist Seminary.
20. A full fridge, freezer, and pantry.
21. Our church family.
22. My mom’s help when I teach.
23. My daughter’s job; repaying us; paying off her debt
while she’s at home.
24. The 407, which is fast, albeit expensive. An hour door
to door to my daughter’s house.
25. My grandson, who is so much fun, although he’s heading
into terrible threes, since he didn’t do terrible twos.
26. My granddaughter, who is so cute. She is starting to
stand on her own, and will walk soon, I think.
27. Seat warmers in our new car.
28. Opportunities to serve at church.
29. Whole Foods; my happy place.
30. Panera Bread; my other happy place.
31. Reacquainting with old friends.
