Thankful
I can't get to sleep so my mind starts wandering. Here are the things I am grateful for at this particular moment: I am grateful that God has brought me this challenge and this is why.....he loves me so much that he wants me to let go and lean on him for strength; he wants me to feel free from worry and being scared; he has brought me closer to him through challenge and pain. I am grateful that on the night before a blizzard and the morning of a blizzard I earned a new respect for the big orange asplundh trucks and the men who drive them. They all gathered at the hotel to stay for a night, talking of coming from Canada and the Carolinas. Then in the morning they pulled out at 6 a.m., in the middle of a snowy, freezing cold blizzard. I would not have seen that if I were tucked away in my own bedroom. I am grateful for the six windows that I used to look out of when I woke up in the morning. We were high enough in our house that I could not see building...
