30 days of Thankfulness -
Day 1
I am thankful that even when the truth hurts it sets you free. |
Day2- I am thankful for the beauty of the PNW. And to think that I can smell the salty Sound, or go on a hike in the forest or go play on a mountain any day.
Day 3 - I am thankful there are choices in which to worship.
Of course the search for the right one is not always fun... |
Day 4 - I am thankful for the age 3 and that it is only temporary.
Day 5 - I am thankful for family that loves me and does not kick me out of the family when most other families would.
Day 6 - I am thankful for Floyd Strater. He was a very good pastor who remembered my name out of context two weeks after meeting him. I can't tell you what an impression that made on a 23 year old woman with very low expectations. I know I will see him again and he will probably still know my name.

1 - God has a plan
2 - He is there regardless of my feelings
3 - He is concerned about my smallest needs
Thank you FB people...
Days 20, 21 and 22
Thanks when I cannot think of anything because He carries me through...
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One...
And now let the weak say I am strong
Let the poor say I am rich
Because of what The Lord has done for us...
Day 23 - it's the little things that bring joy...oatmeal cookies, meatballs with cheese and fresh garlic, texting, that blade of grass popping up in unexpected places...I am thankful I can stop and experience the little things.
Day 24 - thankful for friendships that stand the test of time.
Day 25 - Give thanks to The Lord for he is good, His mercy endures forever.
Day 26 - thankful that today is the 26th...I am so overwhelmed with numbers here in the PNW. They don't have names for most of the streets, just numbers and more than one street gets the same number. Sometimes the streets are parallel and next to each other.
Day 27 - I am thankful not only for what God has done and still will do but for who He Is...
Day 28 - I am thankful for the heritage that is passed down from generation to generation. I am also grateful to discover more and more rich heritage through researching our family tree.
Day 29 - I am thankful for change...I do like variety so change can be good.
