It was twenty years ago this lent season that I considered publically professing my faith in Christ. Twenty years?! I feel blessed to have walked with the Lord most of my life, but it gives me great joy to reflect and hope and dream about the next twenty years!
Today, I am thankful for...
121. Being given the gift of creativity because He is our creative (Creator) God!
122. Walks without coats!! :) *Yay for warmer temperatures!*
123. Beauty in simplicity and the everyday.
124. Finding a place to purchase Pearl Barley! (I've been on this quest since we moved to our new location over 2 months ago!)
125. Hope for the future... hope that the Lord will accomplish more than we can ask or imagine!
126. Bright colors!
127. Worship... any time, any place... the ability to worship the Lord God for who he is.
128. Authenticity
129. Heartfelt prayers
130. News that we will be aunt and uncle again!
131. To share in the joy of first-time parents-to-be!
132. Seeing young ones grow up to love the Lord and desire to worship him with their lives.
133. To hear news of a dear friend's engagement!
134. To know that God's purposes will be accomplished and to get the chance to be involved in what he is doing.
And last, but not least on my list today, I am thankful for
135. Ants! I wish they would carry on outside my house, but they are interesting little creatures to watch! :)
Blessings to all on this Monday as we give thanks to the Lord for his many blessings. Praying that this lent season will continue to be a time of reflection, revival and rest in the Lord.
Isaiah 30: 15 (NIV) "This is what the Soverign Lord, The Holy One of Israel say, 'In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength'....
