Today, I am thankful for downtime.

OK… to be honest, I never thought I would say that again after the first four years of my isolation. This summer has been busy. My health is where I can enjoy carefully planned outings if weather and health (mine and those with whom I plan to spend time) cooperate. The last few weeks have been busy.

My health was showing signs that I needed some downtime. I needed rest. Previous efforts to get some rest were thwarted by unforeseen (by me, not God!) circumstances. Those with chronic illnesses know what I mean. My body was showing that it was going to go into a flare if I didn’t listen soon.

This weekend, God provided the rest and strength to get some things caught up around the house which desperately needed to be done. I am grateful!

What are you grateful for this week? How has God worked?
