Around Our Sunday Table

 

Thou hast given so much to me,
Give one thing more, - a grateful heart;
Not thankful when it pleaseth me,
As if Thy blessings had spare days,
But such a heart whose pulse may be Thy praise.
~George Herbert~

 

 

It is time for me to pause once again

and take time to give thanks.

Not just at Thanksgiving

but throughout the year.

 

Number one on my list for this week

is that hubby's blood work came back clear. 

 

 

It seems that the cost of living keeps going up

but as one bill has gone up

another one has gone down!

For that I am thankful as it keeps our budget even.

 

I am thankful for Off buttons.

 There is a time for TV, radios, music, etc

but I have learned to appreciate the sounds of the world around me,

the birds singing, the wind blowing through the trees, the dog snoring.

  Silence allows me to think, to dream, to imagine, to pray.

I am thankful I can turn off the artificial noise around me.

 

 

I am thankful for the good weather we have had this week.

It was nice to be able to be outside and enjoy the sun

before winter returns.

 

I am thankful for the relationship I have with my mother.

It has gone through some rocky times

but we are at a good place now

and it is nice.

 

What are you thankful for this week?
