30 Days of Giving Thanks
(continued)
Day Fifteen
I thank God that, in spite of the hustle and bustle of life, I still have a place that I can go to get away from all of it. And that place is my home. My home provides me with a place to spend time with my wife and my doggies and to get a release from all that is going on in my life. With a full-time job and volunteering at my church my schedule full most of the time. It is great to have my home to be a quiet place and a refuge that gives me the chance to rest, recharge and prepare for the next day and its challenges.
Day Sixteen
I thank God for Gio and Vinny, my two doggies. They are a rowdy and boisterous duo; but they provide a spark of vitality to our house. Gio, the big brother, is a beagle who is always on the hunt for squirrels in the backyard. Vinny, the little brother, is a Collie is always wanting to play with this big brother. Their personalities are completely different. Gio is needy and loud and Vinny is laid back. Gio talks to me with deep stares and tail wagging. Vinny talks back with ruff ruff and roul roul . But I won’t have them any other way.
Day Seventeen
I thank God that my wife loves me for who I am; but also wants me to be better. I know that I am a work-in-progress. We all are. But my wife loves me in spite of my flaws and all. She just doesn’t leave me with my flaws and weaknesses; but she helps me to improve myself and shows me a better way. She hasn’t given up hope on me and is always helping me strive to do better. I love her for that. Being a better man is not just for me; but for God first and her too. If I can make myself better, it will make me a better man and husband for her. We both benefit from it.
Day Eighteen
I thank God that my wife is always helping me through difficult situations with her Godly wisdom and advice. God has placed in my wife so much wisdom and knowledge that she knows the right words to say or the right advice to give. I can always count on God first and wife to see me through the difficult situations and be right there with me. It is as if God is speaking directly to me through her yielded voice. I am amazed by what God is doing in her life to help me grow and becoming a better person.
