Thankful Thursday, Take 81

Thanking God this week for...

• Maria's visit
• the Olympics, and the incredible abilities of the human body
• the fact that His power would make the feats of human athletes look weak and pathetic
• my faithful, loving, attentive husband
• giving Steve and me the grace to somehow develop great communication skills
• cooler weather to take walks
• sleeping wiith the windows open
• our box fan
• an unexpected discount at the party supply store yesterday
• long and honest conversations
• friends I feel safe being vulnerable with
• the word "mama"
• justice perfectly satisfied and mercy abundantly given at the cross
• grace greater than all my sin
• the promise of resurrection
