Sunday Blessing

I Am Thankful For...

• For the teenager who is not doing dishes but is watching TV, because that means he is at home and not on the streets.
• (Mine are all grown up!)
• For the taxes I pay, because it means that I am employed.
• (I'm retired, but the hubs is still working!)
• For the mess to clean after a party, because it means that I have been surrounded by friends.
• (No parties, but lots of pot lucks at Church)

• For the clothes that fit a little too snug, because it means I have enough to eat.
• For my shadow that watches me work, because it means I am out in the sunshine.
• For a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and gutters that need fixing, because it means I have a home.
• For all the complaining I hear about the government, because it means that we have freedom of speech.
• For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot, because it means I am capable of walking, and that I have been blessed with transportation.
• For my huge heating bill, because it means I am warm.
• For the lady behind me in my place of worship when she sings off key, because it means that I can hear.
• For the pile of laundry and ironing, because it means I have clothes to wear.
• (Ironing?)
• For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day, because it means I have been capable of working hard.
• For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours, because it means that I am alive.
• (No more alarms, but waking up each morning!)

and finally....

• For too much e-mail, because it means I have friends who are thinking of me.

What are you thankful for today?
