Thankful Thursday


I’m thankful 

  • for sunflowers and for my favorite color, yellow.
  • for all the little cherry tomatoes I’ve eaten this summer. There are only four left to ripen on my tumbler tomato plant, but they are the last of daily picking for six weeks or so.
  • for the four season. It’s hard to let summer go, but it goes with the promise to return again, and for that I’m thankful. 
  • for cheap flights, which help us stay connected to friends and family. So many in my family have benefited from them recently and more will be flying places in the weeks to come. 
  • for the love of the brethren. I’ve seen examples lately and I’m thankful for believers who sacrifice to care for other believers. 
  • for the Holy Spirit who makes new people from old.

Also thankful today:

I love sunflowers but have never been able to grow them. The squirrels always dig up the seeds and the seedlings and eat them.
