Thank you, GOD

Thank you God, for the husband I have to go to the funeral home with me, to comfort a friend who has just lost her fiance.

Thank you God, for the copier that keeps misfeeding, because I have a good job with a great boss.

Thank you God, for the bra that I'm wearing that has 2 cups, when my friend goes today to have a mammogram on her remaining breast after a mastectomy last year.

Thank you God, for the man who put the new wiper on my back window this morning for me, when he could have just handed it to me and I'd have figured out how to do it...eventually.

Thank you God, for the girls in my 789 Bible Study group, 1 possible total of 21, but usually closer to 12 who attend our get togethers when they can and learn about Esther and God and prayer...

Thank you God, for my new Sunday School book, and the 15-20 ladies who want to have The Power Of A Praying Woman.

Thank you God, for the snow that we get, so Garrett can plow, and the snow that we don't so that ladies don't slip and fall...

Thank you God, for the gift card that took us out to eat last night, just the two of us...

Thank you God for no line at McDonald's, so I could zip through for a sweet tea and find out that Shamrock Shakes are HERE!! for a limited TIME!!!

Thank you God, for JJ Heller and Laura Story and Casting Crowns and Matt Mahrer and Chris Tomlin and all the other people who make beautiful music to praise you that I play REAL LOUD!

Thank you God, for friends that come into my messy house and just enjoy the time we have together...especially when the bring food!!

Thank you God, for a new puppy that is just a joy to our house, making the hole from our other dog, not quite so large...

So sorry about your friends fiance. How heartbreaking.

Your list is a good one and a great reminder to be grateful, even when times are hard.

I'm sure your friends come to see you and not your messy house.

Thank for your time with the Sunday School class. I appreciate your sacrifice.
