Good morning! Welcome to “Thankful Thursday,” a weekly time and place inspired by the book, One Thousand Gifts, to think about how we’ve been blessed. I hope you join in on the fun – what are you thankful for this week?
Here’s my list for this week. I thank God for:
1 – safe travel to and from my hometown for Christmas
2 – all the food and fun I had over Christmas
3 – $3 body cream
4 – hearing from friends/family I hadn’t heard from in a while
5 – a New Year with new opportunities, possibilities, blessings and more!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
“Another fresh new year is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!”
~ William Arthur Ward
