Those are just a "few" of my favorite things.  Isn't God so good?  On days when the world may let us down or have us discouraged, we can always find something good if we look hard enough. God is always there. He is always faithful and He always has a word for us.  He is a friend like no other and will always give us just what we need at just the right moment.  How awesome is that???!  He knows us better than anyone and still chooses to love us and bless us with simple little "favorites" every day.  Now, what is one of your favorite things? :)
