Day 18... Wednesday... Humility
I am thankful for knowing I'm not perfect
and being okay with it even though it is always humbling!
My perfectionist self so wanted to blog 30 days in a row.
My less than perfect self just cannot do it.
It's so freeing to know that none of us are perfect!
Now that's something to be thankful for!!
I'm still so sorry if I've let any of you down.
Thank you for loving me anyway!
Day 19... Thursday... Opportunities
Regarding the interviews... soooo thankful!
I had such a great time with the last three...
great hosts... great questions... great opportunities
to encourage others and point them to Jesus!
You will laugh when I tell you I was actually sad they were over.
I grew through them and was truly beginning to have a good time!
I hope you're thankful for the opportunities God gives you to be a
blessing to others... even when it is out of your comfort zone!
Day 20... Friday... Michelle's Studio Sale
My daughter's Studio Sale started last night, the 19th
and I am so thankful she invites me to come and bring
my books and whatever else I want to sell.
It's such a fun time of visiting with folks I don't see often.
I am also thankful that my paper mache snowmen ornaments sold.
Aren't they just TOO CUTE?!?!?
I took eleven and sold ten... not too shabby.
If we don't sell the house this week I might try to make a few more!
I may even put a few on Etsy!
I also sold a few prints and books as well.
It's such a blessing to know other people like what you create!
Day 21... Saturday... Hope
Most of the day was spent at Michelle's Sale
and most of the evening was spent spiffing up the house
for another showing... this time would be the second time for these folks.
I know... not supposed to get excited until they sign on the dotted line
but still... a little excitement stirs up hope.
So thankful for hope!
Day 22... Sunday... The Holy Spirit
Church was good. Message was about the person of the Holy Spirit!
So thankful for the work of the indwelling Holy Spirit in my life and
so looking forward to Him doing even greater things in the days to come...
and not just in me and through me but in and through you...
and in and through my church and in and through yours!
The folks came and looked at our house... now we wait.
Thanking God for the fruit of the Holy Spirit... patience!
Day 23... Monday... Patience and More Prayer
Still waiting. We were told the buyers will make their decision today.
Ours is still in the running but they were hoping for tile in the kitchen
and hardwood floors rather than carpet. Understandable.
Negotiable. So we wait.
Waiting can be treacherous! Thank You Lord our hope is in You!
So grateful to be able to pray not only for ourselves but for the folks
who come to look at our house... wanting not only God's best for us
but also sincerely wanting His best for them too. It really helps.
And for you...
And as always... I am so thankful for all of you who have been joining
me for these 30 days and all the heart touching comments and emails
I've received from you! I'm sorry for not being able to answer every one
of you right now but I will try in the days to come.
Just know this... you are loved and appreciated!!
