I am so joyful today. He has made me glad.
I am so thankful for the wonderful people in my life --
For friends who give me office supplies and devotionals... because they KNOW that I love those gifts. For a family that laughs. For a boss who gives me hugs.
Today... I'm planning on getting organized for the spring semester. And while I'm slightly terrified of these classes, I also feel ready to rise to a new set of challenges. I anticipate toting my Bible around campus, and whipping it out whenever I feel anxiety begin to rise. I am thankful for a God who promises to never leave me nor forsake me... even in the depths of nursing school. I am thankful that I am halfway through my Sophomore year. I am thankful that God has financially provided through generous donors.
Don't you know.. this is a lovely, lovely day.
"And my soul shall be joyful in the Lord: it shall rejoice in his salvation"- Psalm 35:9
God is so good! I'm realizing more than ever how joy and thankfulness are so closely related... it's impossible to have one without the other. :)
