Why do we try to conform God to our will? Live in His word and know true joy.

More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb."

Thankful Thursday

So today, with highs in the mid 90's, I am thankful for our air conditioning!
I am thankful for several reasons:
#1 ~ I cannot imagine having 8-15 HOT children fussing and cranky because they are HOT!
#2 ~ I cannot imagine chasing the previously mentioned children around when I would be just as HOT as them!
#3 ~ For some reason dear Boo cannot tolerate heat {not sweating might have something to do with it!} and it makes me happy to know that he is not at risk of passing out...
#4 ~ I tend to get a little cranky when warm, so it is best for everyone around!
#5 ~ It takes the humidity out of the house and all of our stuff doesn't feel 'damp' to the touch!
#6 ~ It keeps the temp consistently 71 or 72 in ALL.THE.TIME. and doors close right because of this!

I know this is, again, a vain 'Thankful Thursday' because many people do without...as have we before...but that is what makes me SO.MUCH.MORE appreciative!
