Monday, December 20, 2004 - Our backyard fence

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for our backyard fence. Last night, the winds started blowing through our neighborhood. Since we live in the Rocky Mountain foothills, we experience exceptionally strong, even violent gusts. Our backyard abuts a greenbelt so, on blustery days, nothing on the western side helps absorb the wind's mighty force. During these fierce wind storms, I am amazed that, after enduring 18 years of Colorado weather, our cedar fence still stands, defiant and triumphant.

For this blessing, I am very grateful.

Amen.
