Staff meeting was cancelled today. One of our deacons lost his father last week. The funeral is today and so Pastor Dan went to be with the family at the grave side.

I have spent the day in much prayer allowing the peace of God which passes all understanding to possess my heart and mind. In keeping with the mandate from Scripture this requires a thankful heart….And there is much to be thankful for. Honestly the love of God is an ocean and I am surrounded by His grace.

I am thankful that we had a wonderful week of Indian summer last week. It allowed me time to get the summer things into the cellar.

I am thankful for the birds coming to my feeder on a daily basis.

I am thankful for friends who took Amanda and I to dinner the other night.

I am thankful for the supernatural provision God brought in to pay my bills this month.

I am thankful for every day with Mom.

I am thankful God is providing the next step for Brenda’s mission.

I am thankful that the church is triumphant.

I am thankful that God is establishing His Kingdom in our midst.

I suppose the world is also full of problems. I could focus on them I suppose, but I will not!

I am thankful! I am thankful! I am thankful!

What do you have to be thankful for today?
