"I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought,
and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder."
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
Sometimes, when Monday rolls around, I think "I don't have anything special to add to my list this week, so I won't participate in the Gratitude Community this time." I walk around and feel a bit uncomfortable as a little voice prods me with memories of all that He has done:
- a birthday celebration for my Mom - 87 years of blessing to everyone who has had the joy of knowing her
- protection for my son - when he got a nasty shock while doing some electrical work
- safe travels for my daughter
- a night of incredible ministry
- volunteer work
- an afternoon shower
- the joy that comes from doing the thing I love to do, and encouraging words from friends
- delicious corn on the cob (with lots of butter!)
- a great sale on things we needed
- the underlying current of mercy, grace and love that flows through my life because of Jesus
Blessings,
Linda
