Thursday from 9:30-10:30 is a precious time for me. I hold it dear and try to keep my schedule clear so that I may participate. I belong to a group of women who meet at our church for a study on a book of the Bible. This year it is James. These are just amazing women with loving hearts and vast wisdom. We laugh, cry, pray, talk and help each other in our walk of faith for living a life of love. They are a community of strength for me and I always leave richer because of our time together.

I also am grateful where I am at on the road of life. I am humbled to hold so much love in my heart and am grateful that my ego is mostly dormant. It occasionally rears its pesky head and I have to hammer it back down. I am deeply grateful for my family and friends who have left their mark on me and added their beauty to my life.

Just feeling incredibly grateful today!
