Thankful!

I'm so thankful that I get to serve over here in the 21st century, where there's the such thing as internet! I was thinking this morning about stories that my dad used to tell me of when his family was living in Germany. When he went back to the States for school, he said a phonecall back to Germany cost $50, so they only talked at Christmastime. He'd record letters onto tapes and then mail them to my grandparents! Last night I got to talk with that grandma, who has exchanged sides of the ocean with my parents (and now me!), for free over my computer! I also got to call a dear friend back home, and I loved hearing her surprise from the other end of the line on her cell(yay no more scheduling skype chats! Thank you, Mr Google!).
This morning I went online and listened to a GOOD sermon by John Piper. Then I went to another site to listen to some worship music that I wanted to sing in acknowledgement and thanksgiving for the Gospel message I had just heard!
Just feeling very thankful for that today!
