Daily Gratitude- Year 14 - Day 27: Today, I am grateful for heated steering wheels and heated seats.
These are truly luxury items in our vehicles. When Randy and I were married, not all cars in Michigan were sold without air-conditioning. Imagine that? Today, we do not see air-conditioning as a luxury feature, but as a necessity.
My car only has "bun-warmers" but Randy's truck has both. Both are comfort changers on the coldest days. The heated seats get used any time of year there is an evening chill.
Honestly, in these temperatures, a working heater and a car that starts is a blessing. I remember the years of kid cars and cold weather concerns about our teens' cars starting and their safety in the bitter parts of January and February.
"Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus." -1 Thessalonians 5:18
This scripture is often quoted with the "all things" as the hard things. It is perfect for when we are offering gratitude for the luxuries in our life, too. Most of us have plenty to eat with some to share. We have cars that can get us to school, work, church, and many other activities with our families.
If we have heated seats and/or steering wheels, savor them this morning.
Today, I am grateful for heated steering wheels and heated seats.
