Thankful Thursday #13 – Shelter

Here’s my better late, than never, thankful Thursday! Today, I’m thankful for shelter.

I cannot imagine not having a roof over my head with the rainy weather we’ve had the past few days! I got soaked bringing groceries into my house!

While I’m thankful for the significant amount of rain, this weather served as a reminder to me, that there are millions of people who live without shelter everyday. In 2005, the United Nations conservatively estimated that 100 million people were homeless worldwide.

That’s a lot of people!

Whether it was a teeny-tiny, 400 square foot apartment or my current home, the wind and rain reminded me to be thankful God has always provided me with shelter.

What are you thankful for today? Share it with me!

On another note, we have a big change happening on the homestead this weekend. Continue reading →

Did you know the lack of sleep can impair your immune function?

And that studies show our T-cells go down if we are sleep deprived?

Or that your body goes through a detox process while you’re sleeping? Continue reading →
