thankful thursday #225

Ooo wee, it's been a minute!

Gratitude. I need some. Shall we?

For all the traveling of late, thankful some of it was vacation.

Even though it wasn't for long, thankful some of that vacation included Little Man and the Littlest.

For some of the other work travel, thankful it was with and for people I really like to spend time with.

When a friend lost his dad last month, thankful I had a travel break that allowed me to mourn with his family.

In between all the travel, thankful to have had the chance to catch up with friends with long overdue visits.

Of those friends, thankful they are new and old, near and far.

Despite the heartbreak and pain running through the veins of people I love, thankful the Lord is not surprised by any of it.

When I wept silently in church a couple of weeks ago, thankful for the mystery of the Holy Spirit that convicts and comforts at the very same time.

What have you been appreciating (over the last month, gyah)? Go on, be grateful!
