Grateful Friday

I am grateful that I completely feel that the LORD is with me, despite my circumstances.

I am grateful that with each day that I'm given, I have a chance to speak love into the lives of others.

I'm grateful for beautiful sunshine, warmer temperatures and the stunningly gorgeous fall leaves.

I'm so thankful for my daughter - she is a treasure and a joy.  I'm so proud of her.

I'm grateful that hard times pass in time and that with time comes healing.  I'm thankful for healing.

I'm thankful for the support and love of my Dad - I absolutely love it when he says, "Everything is going to be alright, don't worry."  Thanks, Dad.

I'm thankful for worship music and the Scriptures that give me so much comfort, especially when I'm hurting.

I will be ever grateful for my bestest friend who never misses an opportunity to defend me, love me and care for me.  How did I ever deserve such grace?  I don't think I'll ever know.

I'm grateful for hours of conversation, loving conversation.  Talking things through is so valuable and I'm thankful for the opportunity to continue to build relationship even through the most awful of times.

I'm thankful that the LORD created me just as I am.

I'm grateful for memories...lots and lots of good, happy, funny, wonderful memories.

I'm grateful that we get to take the weekend for some fun down in Oregon - Baruch HaShem!

'Do not fear, for I am with you;

Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you, surely I will help you,

Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'

~Isaiah 41:10
