One of my dearest friends always writes a list of
Things she's thankful for on her birthday,
And I adopted the tradition a year ago as well.
I'm a little late in writing this but here goes
I just turned 29 on Friday so I'll give 29 things I'm thankful for
After having lived for 29 years.
1) Jesus's death on the cross, because without that nothing else on this list matters
2) forgiveness, this year especially as I have been humbled recently by my own sin
3) deepening friendships
4) grace that is undeserved and seemingly never ending
5) a new gift of life
6) the strengthing of old relationships
7) family
8) the love of my son
9) a stable income
10) a home
11) our church
12) caffeine
13) trustworthy care takers
14) unexpected gifts
15) running vehicles
16) precious sleep
17) small group
18) the ability to meet the needs of others
19) our needs having been met
20) never lacking food
21) down time
22) Daka
23) lessened anxiety
24) answered prayers
25) observing The Holy Spirit move in others
26) provision
27) a deeper understanding of hurt in the world
28) the e desire for change
29) empathy
I am so thankful for another year of life that I have undeservedly been given,
