I’m thankful for shelter.
I have never one time in my life been without shelter. Not only that but my home has heat, running water, and many other amenities that I often take for granted even though many others are without.
I didn’t realize how much I took shelter and other amenities for granted until my family went camping together this year.
We were outside all day in 90 degree weather this summer and thankful that it wasn’t hotter. When we camped this fall, it was cold, windy, and rainy, and we shivered as we zipped our sleeping bags together to keep warm.
Finding a water source to pump enough water to filter and drink as well as to wash our dishes in was a fun chore for a short time. Making a fire to cook meals on was a lot more time consuming than turning the knob on a stove to preheat.
I love to camp, but I’m also thankful to come back to a comfortable home that helps to protect from the elements.
I’m thankful for shelter, the family within, and the God who provides.
“For You have been a shelter for me, A strong tower from the enemy. I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.” Psalm 61:3-4
