I’m so grateful for new mercies, every morning. A new day. A new glimpse of His goodness. I’m so grateful that He makes ALL things new. It is such a gift of peace to thank Him in the midst of difficult times. Do I really believe He will make all things beautiful in its time? Yes…I am learning. All truly is grace.
This week, I’m thanking Him for…
A new day
new mercies
your prayers and encouragement after a difficult few days
a patient, loving husband who loves me through so many ugly moments
a few hours of quiet

peace and contentment through gratitude
starting the Boxcar Children book 1 with the girls (one of my all time favorite books from my childhood!!)

reading and clinging to the words and cries of David in the Psalms…if he can be called a man after God’s own heart, may it be so in my own life.
hearing my boy sounding out words
words of understanding

a wonderful, encouraging, inspiring book

I have read Mary Beth Chapman’s book…you are right…you need tissues for that one!
Visiting from Ann’s place today! Beautiful blog and beautiful list of graces!
Stopping by from Ann’s, I enjoyed reading your list. I’ve been spending a lot of time in Psalms lately also, so grateful for David’s godly, authentic example! I enjoyed your lovely blog!
Such a beautiful post! This is a question that I continue to ask myself when the waters run murky: “Do I really believe He will make all things beautiful in its time? ” YES! YES! YES!
