As angry and frustrated as my circumstances make me at times, I am thankful for them. I am thankful that God is not content to leave me as I am, but continues to stretch me and make changes in my heart.
I am thankful for the glimpses of hope that God brings in the midst of hard times--the word of encouragement, unexpected card from a friend, getting to do something fun, etc.
I am thankful that I have a safe place to stay and am not living in my car.
I am also thankful for puns, puppies/kitties and candy.
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
"Since the creation of the Internet, the Earth's rotation has been fueled, primarily, by the collective spinning of English teachers in their graves."
