Thankful Thursday

My daughter and I just returned from an afternoon movie. Give me a romantic comedy and a sprite zero. mmmm,mmm, almost heaven!
Today, my heart is filled with the simple.
An unrushed summer day
The lazy afternoon ocean breeze wandering over the hills of our town
A delightful romantic comedy that leaves you warm and fuzzy
Time with my teen
And visiting with you, my online friends.
Ah, yes. Contentment. God is so very good.
1 Timothy 6-8 A devout life does bring wealth, but it's the rich simplicity of being yourself before God. Since we entered the world penniless and will leave it penniless, if we have bread on the table and shoes on our feet, that's enough. (MSG)
Marriage thought, quote, humor of the week: This week I thought it would be fun to share a little marriage humor:
Many girls marry a man just like their Dad, no wonder so many mothers cry at weddings.
~just for fun. *grin*
Have a blessed Thursday, Lynn
PS. Today I shared a story at Laced With Grace. It is absolutely true. If you are needing a lift and need to be encouraged about people in general, this is a story for you. Head over for Are You Happy, (clap,clap *giggle)

Simplicity. Being thankful for the simple things, the small things, the everyday things. That can bring contentment. Thanks for the reminder.
Hope you have a great Thursday!

Your afternoon sounded wonderful! My children are grown and married. Now I have grandchildren who are precious but how I miss those times when Brooke and Brandon were home. Precious memories! Blessings friend!

What was the movie? I have a pre teen daughter. I think that might be fun to do .

I just heard your marriage joke on the radio this week. There is probably a lot of truth to that one!

I'm late in posting my thankful Thursday. I really had to think about the topic of contentment but it finally hit me. So I guess better late than never. Thank you Lynn for hosting again. And I need to get caught up on the discussions on this blog.
