Thankful Thursday


Today I give thanks to my Lord …
  • That my middle sister has now passed her second anniversary as a breast cancer survivor.

  • That my mother is in better health and in great spirits.

  • For all the lovely people whose blogs allow me to sharpen and expand my vision and broaden my outlook as well.

  • For three sisters who grow dearer with each phone conversation, each personal visit, each memento shared...

  • For a brother who always there for me. He steps up and helps me when I need to work through a problem, to get some technical detail clarified, and someone to discuss any of a dozen topics.

  • For a delightful time spent on Sunday afternoon at a friend’s house. The luncheon meal was delectable and the conversation very satisfying. I got to meet a new friend and catch up on things with old friends.

  • That although frequently in pain, I am yet able to make great progress with the tasks at hand.

  • That divine grace has taken us all through 2007 and into the promise of a new year.

  1. How nice to give thanks even when in pain. Having a computer is great too, since it can work as a distraction and take your mind off the pain!
