"Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart."
~Colossians 4:2
Today, I am thankful for:
1. Precious Grandad being okay!! (He went to the hospital last night for what they thought was a stroke, but he improved rapidly and got to go home later that night - praise the Lord!) I'm feeling very thankful for having grandparents who have been a part of my life all this time, and thankful they have the joy of knowing their great-grandkids! ❤
2. The kind stranger who left this note on my windshield... (and the fact that the nail hadn't actually punctured my tire, so there was no damage and no charge). =)
3. Fun game nights with the Fosters and their Woodlake Connect Group! (These were my Apples to Apples cards on Monday). lol
4. Chocolate cake with buttercream icing and strawberries. =) #noregrets (I halved the recipe then just lobbed the icing on there instead of making it all pretty. lol) Next time I have people over, I'll make it for real. Ohmygoodness, it's a winner! #yum
5. For God's protection... at all times, really, but particularly yesterday morning... I met Judge on the side of the road. He had hit a piece of steel that flipped and pierced his gas tank, so his car was leaking gas... and there was lots of lightning to accompany the pouring rainstorm. Needless to say, I parked a bit further out while we waited for the tow truck, and I prayed that the lightning would avoid us and no one would flick out a cigarette anywhere near us... whilst picturing the crazy explosion it might create!! Obviously, all was well, so hooray for that! =)
6. Having the world's cutest preshface niece! lol ...Mom bought her a hole punch because it delights her soul to punch holes in colorful paper right now. She dropped it and a bunch of "confetti" poured out. She ran right over and grabbed the broom... swept it all up like an expert... then promptly tipped the dust pan over while trying to carry it to the trash can. lolol I insisted on helping her the second time around. =)
7. For my "personal commandments" - when I take a minute to stop and read through them, it's always a good, encouraging reminder of how I want to live!! ❤
That's all for now. Happy Thursday!
