Happy Thursday!
If you read my Thankful Thursday post last week, or my previous post on Forgiveness, then it shouldn’t come to a shock to you that I’ve been trying to make peace with a few things lately.
It’s been a roller coaster ride.
This week I am thankful for time. They say time heals all wounds. I don’t know if that’s true, but I know that the years that have gone by have given me the distance I needed to not feel so raw as I work through things now.
I am thankful for a very supportive husband, who has understood my need for time.
I am thankful for second, and third… chances.
I am thankful for good reading material that helps you see inside yourself.
I am thankful for the power of prayer (yes, I’ve said it before and I say it again). I pray He continues to guide me, stand by me, and help me on my journey.
Now for my favorite part of Thankful Thursday – I turn it over to you.
What are you thankful for this week?

It’s amazing what a difference it makes when you’re with someone that’s so supportive & understanding!

Yes, it really is. Something to be thankful for every day.

I didn’t do my usual Thankful Thursday post this week but this week I was/am thankful for our car. I typically complain that it is small and that I’d like a second one, but really I’m thankful that we can at least be able to have the one we have. I mean it runs, so it’s not all that bad – plus it’s almost paid off.
OneMommy says
I love the positive outlook! Being able to have at least one car that runs is better than having 2 that are in the shop a lot. 🙂

{Melinda} I am thankful that my son arrived home from camp today safely and with only a sunburn. I’m also thankful that God is always faithful.
Peace … God gives it liberally, but we have a hard time holding onto it. It’s a moment-by-moment process, isn’t it?
Visiting from SITS!

Glad to hear your son is home – hope the sunburn isn’t too bad!
Yes, it is hard to hold on to the peace sometimes, definitely a process.

Beautiful post. I am grateful for my therapist. And God. Together, we work as a team trying to make sense of my life.
Thanks for sharing your lovely post. Best wishes for continued healing.
Stopping by from SITS. Have a great weekend.

I’m thankful for my quiet time when I can take it, and for creative projects that seem to bring me closer to spirituality than anything else.
