reading in bed...

Sometimes I know I don't take time to recall things I am thankful for, cause I'm too busy thinking about the things I don't have or didn't get done today... there is SO much to be thankful for... each day.

today i'm thankful to our Lord for:

1. sleeping in
2. reading in bed for a few hrs
3. going for an afternoon run in the sun
4. some hang out time with Promise
5. pizza dinner with friends
6. hot rooibos tea
7. taking the dog (i'm dog-sitting this week) for a walk
8. breath in my lungs
9. NPR
10. fireflies
11. clean drinking water
12. prayer time in bed this morning
13. green plants to water

the list could go on...


what are you thankful for today?


goodnight, Cil

sorrow.

"My attitude as a saint to sorrow and difficulty is not to ask that they may be prevented, but to ask that I may preserve the self God created me to be through every fire of sorrow. Our Lord received Himself in the fire of sorrow, He was saved not from the hour, but out of the hour.

We say that there ought to be no sorrow, but there is sorrow, and we have to receive ourselves in its fires."

--My Utmost For His Highest, Oswald Chambers, June 25th.

He makes my soul cheery.

"When the cares of my heart are many,

Your consolations cheer my soul."

~psalm 94:19

we are dust...

For he knows our frame;
he remembers that we are dust.
-psalm 103:14


I am thankful God understands where I'm coming from.
He knows me better than I know myself.
He knows I am weak; he knows all my downfalls.
God knows I am small & imperfect.

And yet, He LOVES me just the same.
