Prayer: Morning by Morning, New Mercies

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided.....

What provisions are you thankful for? What mercies do you see today? This is a place to list them.

Here are some things I am thankful for this morning:

1. Fresh coffee from fresh ground vanilla coffee beans.
2. My daily constitutional, the beautiful country I walk in, and the weather that's been so good for walking.
3. My kids. A couple of them have some rather unexpected positive things happening in their lives.
4. For people who are willing to take the time and effort to affirm the work others do.
5. Fragrant pears (the little green chinese ones).
6. That nothing has broken down round this house so far this year.
7. Youngest son is feeling better today and he's off to school
