30 Things I Am Thankful For

Well, it is the holiday season once again. I can't believe Thanksgiving is here already! This year went by so fast.

Since there are 30 days in November, I have decided to make a list of 30 things I am thankful for this year. 

This year was a slow year for me, but there were some things that happened, that I am so very thankful for!

What I am thankful for this year:
  1. My family (which includes my cats)
  2. My friends (one of whom helped me start my journey of deepening my faith, and my relationship with God)
  3. Joni and Friends
  4. Journaling
  5. My faith
  6. My home
  7. Music
  8. Clean running water
  9. Having clothes to wear
  10. Electricity
  11. Food to eat
  12. Books
  13. Thrift stores
  14. My bike
  15. My local library
  16. Puzzles
  17. Nature
  18. My violin
  19. My ukulele
  20. My guitar
  21. Knitting
  22. Crochet
  23. Painting
  24. Photography
  25. Baking
  26. Central air on hot and humid days
  27. Warm baths/showers
  28. God
  29. The Bible
  30. Prayer
There is more that I am thankful for, of course, but I didn't want this post to be too long!

What are you thankful for? If you celebrate Thanksgiving, happy Thanksgiving! If you don't celebrate, I hope you have a great day anyway!

Without

It has been a while since I have participated in Five Minute Friday, but I was inspired to write when I saw this week's prompt. I love to write, but sometimes it's hard to find inspiration.  When I saw this prompt, though, I knew exactly what I wanted to say, and am happy to be participating in this week's link up. This week's FMF prompt is: Without It has been almost 14 1/2 years since my mom passed away And every day without her is bittersweet 14 1/2 years without her voice Without her home cooked meals Without her love Without her comfort Without her We may not have seen eye to eye on some things But I loved her very much I always will She was there for me Whenever I was struggling She was there for me During some of the best days The good things that I have accomplished since she died Were bittersweet without her here to share in the memories I look forward to the day when I get to see her again But until then I will live my life to the best of my ability Knowing t...

Reading the Bible in One Year: June Reading

How is another month starting already?! I can't believe how fast the days have gone by. I have done pretty good in May. There were a couple of days where I forgot to reading the day's passage, but I just reading the following day, along with the next day's reading. To be honest, I am so surprised that I have been able to keep up with this challenge, and not given up. I usually give up on things after a while, but I am still going with this bible reading challenge, and I am very happy with myself! Here is June's reading list: Psalms 119:89-176 Song of Solomon 1-8 Proverbs 1-3 Proverbs 4-6 Proverbs 7-9 Proverbs 10-12 Proverbs 13-15 Proverbs 16-18 Proverbs 19-21 Proverbs 22-24 1 Kings 5-6, 2 Chronicles 2-3 1 Kings 7, 2 Chronicles 4 1 Kings 8, 2 Chronicles 5 2 Chronicles 6-7, Psalm 136 Psalm 134, Psalms 146-150 1 Kings 9, 2 Chronicles 8 Proverbs 25-26 Proverbs 27-29 Ecclesiastes 1-6 Ecclesiastes 7-12 1 Kings 10-11, 2 Chronicles 9 Proverbs 30-31 1 Kings 12-14 2 Chronicles 10...

Reading the Bible in One Year: November Reading

October went well, in terms of keeping up with the readings. I didn't miss a day, and I am finally in the New Testament. I have been looking forward to reading the New Testament for quite some time. I can't believe I am nearing the end of this Bible reading plan already. I have enjoyed it and look forward to seeing how I do in 2024. This year, I wanted to focus only on reading the Bible, but next year, I hope to go more in depth and study the word, as well as to memorize some verses. Here is this month's reading list: Matthew 20-21 Luke 18:15-19:48 Mark 11, John 12 Matthew 22, Mark 12 Matthew 23, Luke 20-21 Mark 13 Matthew 24 Matthew 25 Matthew 26, Mark 14 Luke 22, John 13 John 14-17 Matthew 27, Mark 15 Luke 23, John 18-19 Matthew 28, Mark 16 Luke 24, John 20-21 Acts 1-3 Acts 4-6 Acts 7-8 Acts 9-10 Acts 11-12 Acts 13-14 James 1-5 Acts 15-16 Galatians 1-3 Galatians 4-6 Acts 17-18:18 1 Thessalonians 1-5, 2 Thessalonians 1-3 Acts 18:19-19:41 1 Corinthians 1-4 1 Corinthians 5-8
