Thankful Thursday, Take 43

Thanking God this week for:

  • Fall's in the air!!!!! I LOVE this time of year!
  • New opportunities for ministry and leadership - our church is starting a new site (in downtown Denver) in a few months and I'm going to help with it!
  • Healthy, clarifying conversations
  • Jennie's coming home in just over a WEEK!!!!
  • Spending some time with Ini last weekend
  • A three-day weekend!!!
  • My Job (as four more people - from other offices though - were laid off this week)
  • FOOTBALL season! I love the NFL and my team won last night! GO, GIANTS!!!! :)
  • Dinner at the president of my company's home this past weekend - God just keeps giving me more and more favor with everyone I work with but specifically with a certain set of people (including the president and her husband - both of whom are part owners and work for the company). While I didn't really get any opportunities to talk blantantly about Jesus at dinner, I just keep building rapport and equity with these people (there were like 15 of us there). It's so the work of the Holy Spirit!
  • New eyes to see the things and people around me - to see it/them all with a Kingdom perspective and seeing who they will be in the Kingdom - it helps me know how to pray better
  • Confirmation and validation from my pastor
  • Jesus' enduring love and validation
  • His heart for the people I work with and the people of this city
  • His patience and commitment to me- even when I'm impatient, faithless and in consistent
