Thankful Thursday

"For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies."  Psalm 108:4

God is faithful to His children in so many ways and I just want to give God thanks today.
  • Spring is starting to appear.  The lilacs are blooming (my favorite smell ever!), and the petunias are planted.  We even had warm enough weather to sit outside and take a Sunday afternoon nap.
  • Speaking of spring...we found a bird nest in the hanging basket of flowers outside, and inside was 5 little eggs.  

    • Within 24 hours we celebrated the wedding of a young couple going into ministry, and the 60th wedding anniversary of another beautiful couple.  You can see God written all over those lives.  
    • Our Sunday night prayer group took a prayer walk around the church building, praying for our youth all along the way.  I'm blessed by those who joined me in prayer.
      • Last night we attended the graduation of a close family friend.  We've watched this young lady grow into someone strong and beautiful and ready to go conquer the world!  Congratulations Dani!
      • Kyle had baseball tryouts, and was one of 3-4 eighth graders who made the area Legion baseball team.  

      Lord, thank you for all the ways we see your presence in our lives.  Your fingerprints are everywhere.  Open our eyes so that we can be more aware of all the ways you are active day in and day out.  I give you thanks, dear Jesus, for Alyssa and Kyle.  Open their eyes that they may see you
