Good News: 4 Things I’m Thankful For
My plan is to highlight one thing per week that I’m thankful for. Today I have decided to share four things for my Good News.
The first is that today is our daughter Faith’s ninth birthday. She is the third of three April birthdays we have for our children. Even our dog has a birthday in April! We took the children out to see Boss Baby for her birthday.
The second is that this morning we had Jacob Moon take our service at Queen Street Baptist Church. He is an amazing musician and he also shared about Compassion Canada. He was so good that even though we were already Compassion sponsors, we took on another little girl. Jacob and his son also joined us for lunch which was nice.
The third is that our son Justus has found something at church that he enjoys. Being eleven, church is not the most exciting thing for him and he has been struggling. But today, he sat at the sound board with one of our sound guys and learned how to run the board. Justus has natural talents in that area anyway. He enjoyed so much that he asked me if he could come to church with me again tonight for an event that was going on. Justus helped with sound again and he was just beaming.
The fourth is that Amanda is starting at Brock University tomorrow. Brock is where I did my BBA and I have a lot of memories there. I’m super proud of Amanda for starting there. Her ultimate goal is to study neuroscience. Amanda is extremely intelligent and I know she will do great in her studies. People point at my degrees but I have no doubt that Amanda is the smart one in our family.
There is so much to be thankful for. God is good and this is Good News.
