For These Things, I Thank You, Lord

31.  For our friends John and Ilyana, who so graciously hosted our church family in their home for an ethnic meal!  Yum, yum!  Cabbage rolls!


32.  For dear grandparents.  Lord, please help them in their infirmities.

33.  For shoes and socks.


34.  For a persistent neighborhood kitten who has won my heart against my will.  Love you, Carson!  You rascal.

35.  For the privilege of reading a good book with my young son.

36.  For the privilege of reading a challenging, convicting and encouraging book aloud to my family.

37.  For lapbooks and mini-offices.  We're having fun!

38.  For telephones that help us keep in touch with loved ones, and sometimes let us talk to real people and not computers.

39.  For cooler weather and gentle breezes.  The sky was beautiful yesterday when I sat outside to drink my special nano-tea.

40.  For neighbors.  We are so blessed to have many wonderful neighbors.

Thank you, dear Father, for these gifts from Your hands.
Amen.
