Day 5
Once again I was too busy to blog last night.
Thankful that I have a musical pastor who likes to have concerts. Last night we saw The Wiebes perform at our church. Their daughter sang a song too. https://www.facebook.com/thewiebes?fref=photo
I am thankful for new friends. We have talked to Heather and John and church many times and they suggested after the concert we go to McDonald's. We had a lovely visit and realized we have similar likes. As a Christian I don't have to look for friends because God will put those like minded people in my path.
I am thankful we had another sunny day and I could get more weeding done in the flower bed and go for bicycle ride.
I am a Christian by accepting Jesus as my Lord and savior. God has gifted my in the arts, particularly pottery. I enjoy turning on the wheel to make functional pottery but I also enjoy sculpting and creating whimsical figures, like my bears.

Our Church
Day Three
It is Monday morning. I was suppose to write my thankful blog last night. As I said there might be times in my life where I will not be able to write. Last night was one of those times because we went to Peter's Players in Gravenhurst to see a Pat Travers play. Pete has concerts in his back yard studio which houses about 75 to 100 people on bleachers. http://www.petersplayers.com/
Loud rock music is not my favorite, but with ear plugs I was thankful we can afford to go to these shows once in a while and watch talented musicians. I am also thankful for people like Pete who put on shows like this. He always has an opening act and last night it was two men from Collingwood. They were really good. Unfortunately I can't remember their names.
Of course yesterday was Sunday and we started the day going to church. Four Sundays during the summer we haul out everything from a canopy, musical instruments and chairs for an outdoor service. Being among God's creation some how makes it more peaceful and relaxing to worship God, which is what we did. The service Pastor Steve put on was all about worshiping God. I am thankful for the good church and our pastor who follows God, not religion.
God also gave me a word to speak to the church. It is easier to give the word in church where the wind doesn't carry your voice away. Normally when I get a word I stay in my seat. I felt the need to go to the front, out of my comfort zone, to say this word. It was "who do you worship God or religion?" I am thankful that God will even use me a, sinful person, to bring a word to the church.
There are many things to be thankful for. One more thanks.
I finished putting the last of the gold on my granddaughters China tea set I have been making for her. I started this set 9 months ago.
I hope it turned out in the kiln. I won't take them out until tomorrow. Here is a picture of the first batch from the kiln, fired a month ago.
