Thankful

I thank God for my Looper friends. They are so smart and witty and knowledgeable. I'm not at all like that. Any little bit that may come out of me is completely repeating what I've heard them say.

I thank God for my friend Amy. Her wisdom and friendship has taught me a lot about myself. She is much smarter than me and I am so glad she shares that with me and doesn't mind my simple-mindedness or the borrowing of all her ideas.

I thank God for my sister-in-laws. They all know what it is like to be married to a Mumme (and a couple of them to a Pastor on top of that). We all agree we married the right Mumme and it is so nice to be able to count them as friends as well as family.

I thank God for my family. Although I don't see them much and we aren't always as close as friends, they are my family.

I thank God for the faithful, confessional Pastor's He has placed before me. From them I have received gifts that have mattered the most. I pray God will continue to bless them and keep them faithful shepherds as they battle the various wolves surrounding the flock.
