What am I waiting for?

It has been forever since I have blogged, 5 months. Why haven't I written? Too many excuses but the biggest one is nothing major to write about. Is that true? Oh No. There is much to write about.

I often wait on the earthshaking things when all around me God is working. So here goes:

I had an awesome time in Nicaragua. It was a mountain-top experience for me. God allowed me to hand out Bibles on top of a mountain. I got to hand a Bible to a lady who may never have held one before. That was such a thrill to my heart.

I was able to get away for a few days with my husband and just have some time together. I got to sit by some mountain streams and just "be still and know He is God."

I just got to welcome another precious grandchild into this world. Even though this is number 8, each is so dear and special. God has been so gracious to give precious children to my daughters.

I have the privilege of teaching a precious group of ladies in Sunday School. They allow this imperfect teacher to share what God is teaching me and they teach me more than I could ever teach them.

I am blessed with the ability to be able to see and hear, I have more food to eat than I need and I have a car to drive.

I have a family to love, a house to live in but most of all a God to live for.

Today I am thankful.
