Gratitude List

I'm thankful for...

...Jesus Christ, and my identity in Him.

...The love of my precious wife, Jaime, and the joy of co-raising our two adorable children.

...Our new house that keeps us warm, and Jaime's ability to make a house a home.

...Our new church family, that could NOT possibly be more loving, supporting or encouraging.

...A great thanksgiving weekend in Memphis with extended family: way too much to eat, our annual football game outside, and a new annual tradition: a late Friday night basketball game in White Station C of C's brand new gym.

...the life and witness of Prentice Meador, and the rock-hard faith of his family who were all at Otter Creek this morning...demonstrating their faith in a sovereign God whose will is perfect.

...Starbucks' Christmas blend (but I still believe Dunkin Donuts coffee is better any day of the week.)

...cool temps and the promise of snowfall!

...MUSIC to help celebrate Christmas: Selah's version of "O Holy Night", Amy's myriad of Christmas releases, Sara Groves' new Christmas album, and Go Fish's song "It's About the Cross".

God, You are so good. May Your Name be forever praised.
