"Every time we remember to say "thank you", we experience nothing less than heaven on earth." - Sarah Ban Breathnach
Remembering to say thank-you is the best...It reminds me of how much He's given me...how far I've come....and how great He is. And more...it helps me live in hope...and faith and joy. This week...I'm grateful for:
-a home where people feel comfortable ...not just my family but others. When people come over they always say they feel like they've come home. I love that!!!
-the community that we live in....it's a great place...with kind people - individuals and families reaching out and helping others.
-my 14 yr. old and I spent a morning together sorting through mountains of donated toys and gifts at an inner city outreach. Working side by side with her was the best. We're doing it again this Saturday. ☺
-living in a free country that values human rights and respects all people. Some people around the globe are killed for standing up just b/c of their faith or for going against their governement.
-the absolute best - my faith - it's a filter that helps me see everything with hope....very different than how I used to.

Beautiful comment! How I agree with you.xx
Wonderful ones, as I have come to expect. My favorite was the visual picture that I had of you and your daughter going through the donated toys.
There is not much quite as wonderful as being God's hands in meeting the needs of others, is there?
I am with you on this one
I agree ... I joined Multitude Mondays you need to link up and join in Ann in one holy experience
Such a great thankful list. Thank you for sharing. Blessings...
Saying "thank you" seems to be a dying art these days. Nice to know there are people who still see the value in it. Loved this.
Yes...we do have so much to be grateful for. Saying thanks by helping others like you and your daughter did is a wonderful way to express it. Enjoy your Saturday when you do it again!
So true, we have our freedom. Love your list!

What an amazing list! Saying thank you is such a blessing, isn't it?
Too often these days people forget to say thank you and certainly many don't remember to give thanks to God.
Wonderful post, Sarah.
What a wonderful memory to build with your daughter.
Sarah, that is one awesome list of thanks. It takes only seconds to say thanks or to be kind. What an experience to remember with your daughter helping others.
I cannot wait to work side by side with my daughter one day, just like that. Wonderful gratitude list!
Hi, Sarah..thanks so much for coming by. I tell ya, these are the best and so easy cookies to make. There is NO WAY you can mess them up.
3 ingredients..
drop by teaspoon onto sprayed (with Pam) cookie sheet. You can criss-cross them (dip your fork into sugar to prevent sticking to the cookies) or you can just pop into the 350 oven for about 10-12 minutes..until they are golden brown and smelling sooo good.
Let them cool, then put them on a pretty plate, fix a hot cup of coffee or tea or ICY cold milk and eat 'em all up !!:)))
God is truly the Source of all good things. All of our wonderful blessings come from Him and relationship with Him!
THANK YOU!!
oh yes! There's so much to be thankful for! Lovely as always, Sarah :-)
many sweet blessings..Trish
I too,feel there is a lot to be thankful for.God is truly Good and good to us and sometimrs we forget this. Thank you for your gentle reminder.Barb
