Our Aspiration

"That you aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we have commanded you,





that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing."

1 Thessalonians 4:11-12

Thinking of how God provides today, how He gives us hands to work, how He gives us work...


And linking up once again to A Holy Experience (wondering why the button won't work again this week) with all the counting others.

Thank you God for:

#51. the tool business You gave us

#52. the tool truck

#53. every single tool on that truck

#54. every single tool that has been sold

#55. every single customer...I pray for them often

#56. the UPS lady, sometimes man, who brings us most of our freight...every single day

#57. nimble fingers

#58. and able bodies

#59. that it's okay to aspire to a quiet life, and even more than okay... it's Biblical

#60. my very own tool man

All excellent and important things to remember to give thanks for. And, what a great verse to start off with.

Wonderful application of that verse. I'm going to cling to that today too.
