To I am thankful for...
1. Ben eating all of the food on his plate at dinner and then asking for more, a first EVER.
2. surprise guests for lunch and welcoming them into a clean house.
3. cleaning my house yesterday.
4. the sunflowers that are over 6 feet tall in my neighbors yard so they can be seen from my kitchen window. I love them so much I wrote a note and thanked her for them.
5. Michael being back to his lively self and feeling great.
6. pictures from Keri of her adorable kids. Little Bo is getting so big!
7. new friends, Paul and Kari, coming over for dinner last night. (Hence the cleaning of the house.) They are a very entertaining couple, very funny.
8. Mark having a three day work week this week because he has Saturday off!
9. apples, because Ben is obsessed with them and eats a whole one, everyday.
10. a nice, hilly, walk with Ben today.
Ok, it's verse day. Here I go...
Psalm 139: 1-16
"Oh Lord, you have searched me and you know me, you know when I sit and when I rise. You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my laying down. You are famliar with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, you know it completely, O Lord.
You hem me in - behind and before. You have laid your hand upon me. Such knowledge is to wonderful for me, to lofty for me to attain. Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens you are there, if I make my bed in the depths you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me, the light become night around me" even the darkness will not be dark to you, the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mothers womb. I will praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works, my soul knows this full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
Ok, check me...
