Thankful

There are so many things to be thankful for, and on a daily basis I'm sure I don't remember to thank the Lord for even a tenth of them, but He certainly is good. In times of crisis, in good times, in the routine of every day - He is good. I encourage my kids to daily find something to thank God for, and at the ages of 5 and 9 their perspective is often more self-serving than not... but sometimes they really surprise me with their insight and their ready love for others. The faith of a child is a wonderful thing. May that mine and yours is always that strong.

By the way... it's -20 here this morning. Just in case you couldn't think of something to be thankful for. :)
