“The more I study nature, the more I stand amazed at the work of the Creater.” … Louis Pasteur

1. First off this week I am thankful for my family. Especially my parents and the strong faith that have installed in us through example, love, and discipline. I am thankful that they have taught us to serve the Lord through our individual talents. I am thankful for my brother Andrew who is serving the Lord and his country in the Marines and who is currently at boot camp.

2. I am also thankful for my church family who weekly encourages and loves on me. I am grateful to God for setting up his church and for placing me into a strong body of believers where I can use my talents to serve.

3. Feed Readers! LOL. I don’t think I could ever keep up with reading the blogs I love without a reader. I use Google Reader.

4. Paperback Swap has been awesome. Not only am I able to get rid of books and pick up a few for myself but I’ve been able to get lots of books for our church library at a reasonable price.

5. Audra, Missy & Christina – the coffee shop gals, friends, and Beth Moore wannabes. Love you guys!
