Thanks At Pentecost
Pentecost is amazing
The thought of God
Breathing His Holy Spirit
Into my Life
Accompanying me
He
Keeps my faith alive
Keeps my hope alive
Reminds me I am God’s
Guides me
Reminds me of options
Expands my vision of possibilities
Inspires the Joy
Reminds me of God’s truth
Eases my fears
He tolerates me and my weaknesses
He abides
Waits for me
He leans in close
Encouraging
No matter where
No matter when
For all of this and so much more
I am Eternally Grateful
A 16 year old girl safe home from a round the world solo-voyage
Really helpful Bank tellers
Grateful smiles when thanks and compliments given – does it really happen so rarely?
Spontaneous discussion with strangers amongst the book shelves of Big W
Utter delight of reading to a soft background of wonderful music
Lovely Warm, supportive water to work out in at Hydrotherapy
Support and understanding of other Post Polios
My ultra comfy day-bed for snuggle and ease when I’m sore
A dear friend
Her helping hands pinning up trouser hems
Bringing her ‘chicken soup’ comfort when she calls
Adorable winter evenings with shop lights reflected on shiny wet-night pavements
Gluten and Dairy free Yorkshire Puddings – success… yes!
