here's what i'm particularly grateful about today:
fresh-made juice for lunch
my coworkers…i love working at this church!
a few days spent in boston last week with aj & that his summer break is less than 2 weeks away
sunshine and springtime (even if it's going to rain all week)
creativity in all of its forms
this new-found addiction to running
tomorrow is my last ministry class
finally finding a spring jacket after a two-month long search (it's the little things, friends)

what are you grateful for today?
That juice looks so good! Do you have a special juicer? We have a Breville but I broke a part on it last month :( So until we get the replacement piece, I will just envy your juice ;) It makes me so happy to hear others talk about how much they love their job! What a blessing!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of your list because I want to be addicted to running.. lol I really do. I just can't motivate myself to get out there... I totally respect anyone and everyone who runs! Hope you've been well! Also wish I had some freshly-squeezed juice today. That sounds perfect!
ReplyDeleteGreat things to be grateful for! It's funny, I've seen many bloggers comment on loving their job while working for a church. I've started including local congregations in my job search... places of worship seem like great places to spend your 9-to-5 :)
ReplyDeleteIf you are passionate about the mission of the organization you work for, whether it be a church or something else, then it's not hard to love your job! It does often mean putting in more hours than you get paid, dealing with people who just don't understand what you do, and extending grace even when you don't feel like it sometimes, but all-in-all, it's awesome knowing that what I do really means something! hope you find a great fit for you!
ReplyDeleteI love Boston! I'm secretly hoping my daughter ends up there for college. It's such a great city. I'm with you on Spring....rain forecasted here too this week but the temps are slooowwwlllyyy rising. I'll take it over snow at this point!
ReplyDeleteBoston will always have my heart…I went to school north of the city and I always love getting a chance to go back! I wish those temps would rise a little faster…haha!
ReplyDeleteIt took me years to decide I actually liked running and I SO wanted to love it!…haha…but something finally clicked a few months ago and now I'm hooked :)
ReplyDeleteIt's such a good idea to take the time to write a list like that every once in a while. If you start your day/week out like that it can really make a huge difference in your perspective.
ReplyDeletewell done with the running! I'd love for exercise to become an addiction for me :)
ReplyDeletemaybe "addiction" wasn't the right term for me, but it definitely is something I'm learning to enjoy! (finally!) :)
ReplyDeleteAmen! That's SO true. :)
ReplyDeleteI love this! I've had a little bit of a rough day and this was perfect to remind my heart to be grateful! Thank you!
