#onebigtruth Thankful Thursday

Today I'm participating in a really neat link up with some amazing bloggers who are sharing what God has done in their lives. At first I wasn't sure I had anything really worthy of blogging about, so many bloggers have incredible stories of God's faithfulness through infertility, singleness, adoption...and I'm still waiting on things. There are a million little things I am thankful for each done, but compared to others my story seems insignificant. Then I had an 'ah-ah' moment and realized that is my story. I may not have a big story right now, but that doesn't mean I won't. God is always working in my life. His timing is perfect. Some days I get discouraged and think that I need to give up on my dreams and than I'm asking for too much. Then I remember that I'm not. God can do anything, even more than I can dream. It just might take some time. Which means the first thing I'm thankful for today is that nothing is hopeless or impossible with God.
 
                  

 
On a lighter note I am thankful for the cheesecake that is in my fridge. As soon as I finish this post I am going to make myself a cup of tea, light a candle and do some reading while I enjoy every delicious bite.
 
I'm thankful for a stack of books in my to-read pile that I am finally getting around to reading.
 
I'm already thankful for the homemade pizzas I plan on making for supper.
 
I'm thankful for friends who ask "how was your day" instead of "what's up?".
 
I'm thankful for last minute babysitting opportunities, which leads to extra money, which is always nice.
 
I'm thankful for hot cups of coffee on chilly autumn mornings.
