My family
Being at a baseball game (combining those Saturday!)
Country living--even the noise is serene
Expository teaching--and the old hymns
Teenagers--it's a disease I have
Reading and writing and . . . more reading and writing (not that other stuff--I'm a Christian)
Soft rains
Watching thunderstorms at night in the darkness
Walking at night in a heavy, wet snowfall
Duck dinner for a holiday--well, for any day
Gentleness
The beauty of The Acres
Surprises at The Acres--get some every year (though the biggest so far has to be the goldfish in the pond)
Dead rodents
Sitting in silence with a friend for whom just each other's presence is enough
Art galleries
Giving secretly
Students who demonstrate scholarship
Cars that run
Alarm clocks that purr
A Reuben sandwich--but not on rye--and with a cold Pepsi
Simple elegance
The words, "I love you."--spoken to others and received from others (One of the many things God started.)
Puns--the groanier the better
Iris
The Old Testament prophets: "Thus, says the Lord!"
Hmmmmmmm. I guess that's more than a few. Hard to stop once you
start! I think that it's going to take all of eternity to list each
blessing. And we'll probably run out of time.
