Thanksgiving Thursday - September 24, 2015

Welcome to another weekly installment of Thanksgiving Thursday.  :-)

Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous;

    it is fitting for the upright to praise him.

Psalm 33:1

Counting my blessings one by one:

• Being led to an honest mechanic 

• Sharing a laugh with a co-worker, just when I needed one...

• A bond that grows sweeter and more special with my baby granddaughter, Lexi, each passing day

• Seeing Lexi's funny personality blossom, loving how much she makes me laugh

• Hearing my son-in-law read to my granddaughter in the next room, complete with special voices for all the characters

• The prayers of dear friends and bloggers

• Me and Lexi skyping with my mom

• Hearing how much my daughter enjoyed her first Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPs) meeting 

• Sitting at work hearing through an open window the Catholic church bells playing "Be Thou My Vision" finding myself in a moment of worship, right there at my desk...

• Living in a town that feels like I'm on vacation, all the time - waterfront and unique old homes

• Enjoying alone time and prayer time out on my deck

• A fellow blogger, who is going home to be with the Lord soon, sharing her incredible joy despite her failing body, and the excitement she feels to soon meet her Savior; Oh, what an impression she left on me!  :-)

• A head cold that went away fairly quickly

• Getting to cuddle with Lexi again after my cold ended - oh how I had missed those cuddles!

• Being led to a primary care physician whom I really, really like and whose medical approach fits perfectly the conservative treatment views that I desire

• Feeling the prayers of everyone who prayed for my annual check-up.  As you can see above, it couldn't have gone better!  :-)

• Not being more seriously hurt in a fall, which definitely had the potential...  The spiritual warfare continues... But God - He protected!

• The Lord, who continues to close doors to cars we have been interested in purchasing; trusting that He is doing so to lead us to the perfect car

Praising God for His many blessings this past week.

A joy that is shared is a joy made double.
