Thankful Thursday
So today is Thankful Thursday over at Greg's Place.
While I was driving to work this morning praying, I have to admit I was kind of having a pity party with God day. I sometimes feel like God is a thousand miles away and no where to be found. I know that is contrary to what I really believe, because in reality he is here beside me every moment of every day. So today on Thankful Thursday I am going to be thankful for the little things he did for me today.
1. A warm cup of coffe
2. A 30 minute peaceful ride to work listening to christian music
3. A friend at work that really cares about me.
4. 4:00 quitting time
5. A comfortable recliner to fall into when I get home
6. Take-out dinner brought home to me by my sweetheart
7. A comment made by one of my daughters on how she liked my last post.
8. Knowing tomorrow is Friday and I don't have to work.
9. Knowing that when I lay my head down tonight I will get atleast 5 hours of sleep
10. And the best knowing that in the morning I will wake up to God's New Mercies again.
Not all days are exactly how we want them and sometimes a little disappointing, but all days are filled with ways we can be thankful.
There is no better place to lull the day away, then to spend time with an old friend sitting on the front porch enjoying memories, thoughts and ponderings. I pray that as you peek through my Picket Fence that you will be blessed and may you always find peace from God. This blog is dedicated to my Children and Grandchildren, I pray that the memories and the ponderings I post here will inspire and encourage you and even make you laugh a little.

There's blessings all around us, but sometimes I have to remind myself to see them.

I am blessed by this post and the reminder it provided for me on this rainy, overcast Wednesday. I agree with you, sometimes we just need to stop and refocus. I liked reading what you are thankful for. Thanks for sharing it today. Your blog is beautiful!
