Day 185: multiple drivers

Today I am thankful that we have multiple drivers in our family. That way when the person driving becomes tired or whatever someone else can take over. 

What are you thankful for today?

Day 184: unbrokenness

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away." Revelation 21:4

Today I'm thankful that I don't have to be broken forever. The verse pretty much sums it up. Go read it in context for something really cool. :)

What are you thankful for today? 

If you don't get what I mean by unbroken or don't understand how to get there please email me at beautyofnormal@gmail.com.

Have a great evening. :)

Days 182 & 183

Day 182: sun

When you get to your (cold) school early and a beam of sunlight is waiting for you at the place you'd intended on sitting. Ahhhhh. :)

Day 183: job

So I got a job today. I applied for it this morning and got it before 1:00 I believe. I am so thankful for the opportunity to work and earn money. So excited. :D

Day 178-181

Day 178: Bible study apps

Today I am thankful for Bible study apps. There are three apps that I use often.

The first one is Olive Tree. I use it most often for following along during sermons. It's great because there are many highlighting options and you can make notes within the text.

Accordance has a built in lexicon. It's not written in a way I'm familiar with but it does work offline. Also, you can search for a word and it will pull up every verse the word is used in.

The CBN Bible app is great but requires Internet access and is a little slow sometimes. You view one chapter at a time. In the sidebar there are pull down boxes with commentaries, a concordance, and a lexicon where you see information for the selected verses.

Day 179: the people of a certain nearby church

I'm thankful for those people because they donate bunches of stuff to the students from my school. Like laptops, cars, kitchen supplies, furniture, etc. Very, very thankful for all the needs of poor college students being met. God's good like that. :)

Day 180: when my brother makes breakfast

(And I'm running late). This happened to me a couple days ago. I was late and was going to the kitchen to find something to take with me as I ran out the door. And there was my brother, scrambling eggs. And he'd made some for everyone, I think. Very thoughtful brother. Love him bunches. :)

Day 181: sunshine

I like how it lights up everything and feels cheerful and warm.

What are you thankful for today?

Day 177: meeting new people

Because every new person is a potential friend. And learning people's stories is one of my favorite things. And because it makes me happy. 

What are you thankful for today?

Day 176: family

Today I am thankful that I have a family. I'm thankful that I have someone to come home to.

Day 175: my sense of smell

I don't mean the sense of smell in general. I mean mine. Because I almost don't have one. Today I'm thankful for all those times when people complain about a bad smell and I can't smell it.
