Thankfulness – “The Little Things”
It’s the little things in life that touch my heart: an young boy holding a door open for me, a friend saying words of appreciation through an e-mail, David handing me the first blueberries he picked from his bushes, someone asking about my children who do not live in this area, seeing a former classmate at Mike’s, a hug, or any one of many other little things that happen. These are the riches I value so much in life and some of the things that seem to happen just when I need a reminder of love, God’s love and love of family and friends.
Devotional – Our Daily Bread – “Leap the Wall”
Values – Caring – “There are Still Sweet-Hearted People in the World
Hymn of the Day – “Count Your Blessings” – I may have used this hymn before, but I think it is a good reminder to all of us periodically.

Our blessing are the “little things” more often than the “big things”. Reflect on the little things that bless your heart.
