Gratitude Journal #5

What I am thankful for:
*church
*music at church
*God's healing of old wounds
*chocolate cookies (made by my neighbor - I could enjoy them without doing the work!)
*sharing good conversation over tea
*cheap telephone rates to call the US
*Isaiah 40
*adventures/time with friends
*coffee
*IKEA
*IKEA swedish meatballs
*my roommate's creative mind
*laughter
*"The Vitamin Bible"

What I want:
*to be used by God
*to go to bed early (or at least on time) tonight
*to encourage those around me today
*to better understand the meaning of Isaiah 40:31
*to get lots of work done on the English curriculum today
*to not be like Abraham and Sarah (I don't want to take God's plans and promises into my own hands and try to make them happen in my own strength; rather, I want to patiently trust Him)
