Thankful Thursday

I’m going to try out something new. It’s related to a new book I’m reading. I’m not going to tell you the name of the book yet, because I’m not done and my verdict isn’t in yet, but Lori and Nicole know which book I’m talking about. I’m sucked into the book, so I’ll probably finish it very soon (compared to the stack on my bedside table).

Anyway, my point here is to listen, look and be aware of any moment to be thankful for. We are going to include ANYTHING: good, bad, happy, sad, easy, trying. If we limit to thanking God only for the good things in life, then we’re mis-understanding him. In a nutshell, we say to God, I only have faith when things go my way. That’s not who or what God is or does.

It’s reader participation. Leave your thankfuls in the comment section. I’ll remove the log-in section so that more can join. It can be one, it can be many. Look for them. We’ll do it on Thursdays because I like alliteration (words that start with the same letter). It’s corny and cheesy, but it is also easy to remember.

My thankfuls:

watching piano students examine their music for better understanding

listening to dinner banter of 2 boys and 3 girls

the quiet of a house and not feeling lonely at the same time

the heat of a shower
