Thankful for the thorns

Written by Pauline Stanton, Little Rock, Arkansas

I am always thankful for the thorns. Without them, life is mundane, uneventful, and although very beautiful, the thorns along the way give us pause to stop, reflect, and really admire all the roses that God puts in our lives. Every day. I use these as thanksgivings to help family and friends find their “thorns” and share with us how they have grown from them.
