30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 4

In light of the fact that it is chilly today, I am thankful for my home.  Walls that keep out the wind, a solid roof to shield the rain, and soft carpet under my feet.

God completely blessed us when we moved to Guyton into a type of house that we didn't have any expectations of living in for another few more years!

Yet more than just the house, it is our home.

It is here that my children play, and eat, and dream, and even more, thrive.  Here my husband rests (most evenings!), I am privileged to assist both families find quality caregivers and provide employment for others during these economic times.  However, this house drew us to turn it into a home where we could serve and minister both within our new church home and our community.

It is five months today since this house became our home and our dreams for it are coming true.  We are praying for many, many, many more months here with our home being filled with the love of Christ, laughter, prayer, friends, students, sweet fellowship, more children, new agency clients, great food, and so much more!

"Choose this day whom you will serve... as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."
Joshua 24:15
