Happy Thanksgiving!! Today is different from other Thanksgiving days, because first I’m in Honduras and I’m missing my dear ones. Still, I am counting every blessing.  So here’s 10 things I’m thankful for today: 

  1. I am thankful that God chose and called me on this mission to Honduras and more
  2. For cool breeze on my face 
  3. For friends who ALWAYS calls me a beloved nickname 
  4. For my body which can move, walk, climb and run (when I make it ??) 
  5. For my mind that can think and then speak 
  6. For Jesus who is tender and always holds on to me through hurts and healing 
  7. For worship and Christmas music on my phone 
  8. For God’s generosity to me and being pretty much fully funded 
  9. For colorful pens and new books
  10. For naps and coffee

There‘s so many more things that I could list.  Above all, I am so grateful that Jesus is my Savior and is constantly Advocating for me.  I am also grateful for my P-squad family. 

This morning, As a squad we picked out rocks to remind ourselves to be thankful. I came back to the house and read about the Holy Spirit.  Read and meditated on Isaiah.  Then I took a nap. (I love naps!) Then for lunch our cook fixed us beans, rice and hot dogs.  And now, I’m at a coffee shop.  I was able to talk with family and see their lovely faces! 

Tonight, I will meet more World Racers and have a Thanksgiving dinner with all of them.  Again, this day looks so different than pasts but I am counting EVERY blessing. 

Love ya!
