Friday Thoughts

What I'm thinking about today...

How lovely it is to drink tea on cloudy days and how wonderful hats can be.

This week marks the anniversary I technically stopped being a farm girl, but when a girl bred in the country your not ever going to take it out of her. 

How absolutely thrilled I am that Thanksgiving is getting closer by the hour. Perhaps to you Thanksgiving means food and it does to me too, but it also means beautiful family time. The last time I was home for Thanksgiving was 3 years ago. Does that explain why I'm beside myself with excitement?

Thinking about how much there is to be thankful for. All of the little things and all of the big things.

And thankful for this song. The one you need to hear when life is getting crazy. When all that is in your sight is the things that torment you and not the things that cause you to rejoice.

"Everlasting God"

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord

Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our Strong Deliverer
You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary

Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our Strong Deliverer
You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary

You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

" ²⁸ Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth
Does not become weary or tired.
His understanding is inscrutable.
²⁹ He gives strength to the weary,
And to him who lacks might He increases power." Isaiah 40
