This past week I felt great compared to the awful viral meningitis of the week before! I'm praising God! It's so easy to take good health for granted.
The weather has been beautiful lately which inspired me to get a bunch of much needed yard work done this week. I don't love all of the work involved but seeing the results is very motivating to keep at it.
Like all of you, there are so many frustrating things about this time of shutdown due to the coronavirus, but I can also clearly see ways that God is blessing us and working all things together for good in the midst of it all. What are you giving thanks to God for during this challenging time?

Since 2009 I've been counting my blessings thanks to the prompting of Ann Voskamp.
I continue to count my thanks,
piling up gratitude day by day in my journal.
(and capturing some of my blessings via my camera or iPhone)
