Thank you, Lori, for hosting Thankful Thursday this week. How I look forward to this time when I am reminded of God's goodness...I have so much to be thankful for.Thank you, Jesus, for your lovingkindness. Thank you, that Your grace is sufficient for me. 2 Corinthians 12:9 "And He said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
I am thankful this week for God providing new renters for our home. These renters are family members and love the Lord. They are in full time ministry so they are excited to be able to use this home to bless others. This is an answer to their prayers and ours!
James 5:16 "The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much"
I am thankful for my son who has shown great compassion this week for those he knows are hurting or ill. He has begun to reach out and ask how he can be praying and it really is a great tune to this mother's ears. 1 Peter 3:8 "Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous"
I am thankful for the blogging community who came alongside of me and offered encouragement and prayer support for my daughter. I truly don't have the correct verbage of my heart's cup that is running over with gratitude but I am so thankful.
Galatians 6:2 "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ"
I am continually blessed and thankful for my beloved who greets each day unto the Lord and walks side by side with me. We will be celebrating our anniversary on February 1st. His smile still renders me speechless. Song of Solomon 2:10 "My beloved spoke, and said to me: Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away"
Happy Thursday to you! May the Lord bless you!

What a thankful heart you have. I'm so glad to read about how your son is growing in his relationship with the Lord and as a mom, you are able to see it. I'm glad that you wrote about your daughter as your blogging friends can continue to pray for her. I'm also glad that He provides His strength in our weakness. BTW, my birthday is the same day as your anniversary!

We are so blessed in our families and lives...not just in the larger things but the small things that sometimes will go unnoticed. Thank you for seeing and reminding me to look deep at each blessing.
You have an amazing son with a heart for the Lord! What a blessing!
We are continuing to lift up your daughter in prayer as God works on her heart.
