Grateful Friday

meet I-5YQ...the new droid

I'm grateful for sweet movies like Salmon Fishing on the Yemen.

I'm grateful for the light I see in the eyes of friends who are excited about what they are doing.

I'm grateful for my favorite Indian restaurant, Gateway to India - awesome food!

I'm grateful for wi-fi spreading everywhere.

I'm grateful for my readers - thank you!

I'm grateful for life and purpose, and for all the good things the LORD bestows.


Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

I'm grateful for days without drama and restful nights.

I'm grateful for free counseling sessions - you'd be rich if I paid you by the hour! You, my friend, are the absolute best!

I'm grateful to the One who says 'fear not, for I am with you always' - He dispels my every fear and sets my feet on high places. May His Name be blessed!

I'm grateful for modern medicine and experimental procedures that have come after amazing research and those who have been willing to be test subjects.

I'm grateful for our Lord's plans for hope and a future for us....plans to prosper us, not to harm us. Plans that only He knows.....and that is enough for me (even though sometimes I think I want to know....I realize, nah....His knowing is plenty).
