As I was cleaning up supper tonight, it hit me. Waves of gratitude over rainbow dirty dishes. We had just finished a meal that a thoughtful friend had delivered. My family was safe, well feed, and home for the night.
Ava and Graham were playing together and lost in fairy, castle, Lego world. No fighting was miraculous indeed.
As I glanced at flowers from yet another kind, precious friend. My heart felt so full of thanks. Often I am bitter, cynical, weary although God has given me so much. There is always grace all around me. I wanted to document my gratefulness and remember the goodness of this day, this moment. Will you join me in this simple praise of thanks? God’s mercies abound, if only I will notice.
So true about the saying.. Cherish simple pleasures!!!
Amen!
