Thankful List:

-Being unencumbered by social media and being completely off it for Lent 

-Hallow app and reading 'Celebration of Discipline' by Richard Foster and realizing that the invitation to know God deeper is always present - it's just a matter of creating space to know him more deeply 

-Prayer call and the individuals in the group 

-Having Dave and Geri over for dinner 

-Changing seasons - Janet got offered a position at a health equity venture capital firm in New York City and will be moving. Yesterday, unexpectedly, she called me out when she was on stage leading worship and it was such a tender, beautiful moment. Thankful for Janet and the many years we have lived life in Chicago together, in beloved community, through the highs and lows of life. 

-Time up in Mundelein spending time with Sarah and Scott. Julian, Valerie, Tina and I spent the entire afternoon/evening with Sarah and Scott and it was such a lovely time filled with good food and laughter
