I’ll be taking the rest of the week off to be with family, but I wanted to leave you with a list, as is my way. Pausing to reflect on the magnitude of the blessings that God has so graciously given me is humbling. I am small and unworthy and totally blown away by how good and loving our heavenly Father is.
b is thankful for: an undeserved rescue by a loving Savior • family who perseveres and loves me daily • amazing grace • friendships, old and new • church • a warm home where my heart can be at rest • the ability to work and do what i love • good food • fitness • breath in my lungs • health • an appetite for adventure • zeal for life • music • art • words • beauty in a million different places • love • hope in Christ when all seems dull or hopeless or lost
Today or tomorrow or Thursday, take a minute and make your own list. Pause. Reflect. Praise the One who gave you life and gives you life and will keep giving you life ’till the day He returns!

a-MEN. Beautifully said.
