Thankfulness when I don't feel like it

So- Its almost Friday. Because I work in a public school, once its the last 30 minutes of the day on Thursday, its basically Friday in my book. And that thought is glorious :)

Anyway- as I was saying- its almost Friday and I haven't posted in days. Its not that i haven't wanted to. I have actually come to my blog, thought "its about time I write something" and then stare at a blank screen with nothing to say. Sigh. Is my time as a blogger over so soon?

And so- I come back to the main idea of this blog. Thankfulness. In everything be thankful. Declare His praises. With every breath, praise the Lord. Maybe when I have nothing to say, nothing to write about, its exactly because I haven't been dwelling on His goodness enough this week.

Continuing my list

31. I'm thankful that my mom has written out by hand her best 50 or so recipes for me to use.
32. Thankful for a new friend from South Korea and that together we can practice English.
33. Thankful that, because of the blood of Christ, this new Korean friend is my sister in Christ and we have SO much in common even if we don't communicate well yet!
34. Thankful for Mrs. Mohler and Mrs. Ware of Seminary who taught tonight on making the most of our time, being wise stewards with our time, to glorify God and plan well for our families!
35. I'm thankful that God's grace doesn't reveal all of sin to us at once but that He sanctifies us as we can handle it- His grace is sufficient!
36. Chai
37. Even though his 2 inch long white hair is embedded into everything in this house, I am SO thankful for my puppy, and especially when I return home after not seeing him for 14 hours and he basically knocks me over with excitement.
38. Thankful to hear my husband yell with joy from his "office" because it means he figured out a Greek passage he's been working hard on.
39. Thankful for those kids at school that want hugs. I think I enjoy them more than them!
40. Thankful for Daniel and the encouragement in Christ we get from that book.

  1. I love how you randomly threw chai in there and I wish that #38 would happen more frequently! ;)
