Happy Thanksgiving!!!
I'm thankful for each of the tender and precious moments hidden within each day.
I'm thankful God's provided an advocate to plead my defense before my King.
I would have lost heart,
unless I had believed
that I would see
the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living!
(Ps 27v13)
I'm thankful for a man that loves and fears the Lord and waits on Him.
I'm thankful for the two precious little people God's entrusted to me.
Your goodness goes beyond my understanding!!!
Thank you God for Kirstie. For a rekindled friendship with my sister after years apart. Thank you for arranging and working out for her to come here to New Zealand! In the last couple weeks of her being here I've had so many sentimental moments. Not because I don't want to be here or because there's anything sad about Kirstie being here but...When we get each other laughing... joke, sing, tease and have all our crazy banters...I realize some of what I'm missing out on by living so very far away from my family.
Here on earth we get tastes of glory- our hearts are delighted with glimpses of heaven- but mixed in with the pleasure and joy and wonder is grief and pain and hardships of living in a fallen and cursed world.
Thank you God for the glimpses of your glory! Thank you that one day you will restore all, make all things new. In you is perfect beauty and perfect delight. My soul finds perfect rest!
I love you Abba! Thank you for loving me SOO SOO much!
