so thankful

This morning on my way to work as I often do, I turned off the radio and spent some time in prayer all the while doing my Kegel exercises (oh...you didn't need to know that...oops sorry!). These morning prayers usually consist of mostly supplication...God, please be with...and I spend time praying for each member of my family. This morning was different. As I rounded the corner, not too far from work I overlook a wide open field (mind you, they're few and far between in SoCal). I just felt surrounded by the presence of the Holy Spirit and filled with adoration and thanksgiving. Two elements of my prayer life that are omitted far too often which is why I am absolutely certain that this morning it was the Holy Spirit. I am in absolute awe of the wonder of creation. The air that I breathe which sustains not only my own life but that of the precious life growing inside me. The beautiful sunshine that brightens my day. My ability to text a simple message, like I love you, to my mom in the morning. Wow, I have so much to be thankful for and I take it for granted SO often. I decided that I want to make a point of expressing my thanks in my prayer life and on this blog more regularly!

This morning I am so thankful for a husband who loves me, and takes care of me, and tells me I look pretty before we part ways in the morning. Thank you Jesus.
