I am so very thankful that my son arrived in Minnesota safely last night even though they were in the midst of a blizzard. He was delayed a bit on the tarmac in Chicago and that had my Mama's heart troubled for awhile but God brought some sisters alongside of me to pray and keep me uplifted (thank you Kelly, Lisa and Beth). Psalm 91:1-2 "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust"I am thankful for the Lord's Word. I am grateful for how it sustains us in every situation in life. When there is nothing else...there is His Word. 1 John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God"
I am grateful for my husband. This man makes me smile. I love his love of the Lord and his family. I am thankful of how the Lord is writing our story and I'm thankful that I'm remembering to enjoy it. Song of Solomon 2:16 "My beloved is mine, and I am his"
May the Lord bless you this day! Big hugs to you!

Debra, I am so glad you son arrived safely to his destination last night. I just got my TT posted for today and it was on God's protection.
I am so thankful for His protection and that He hears our cries.
Beautiful, encouraging post!
Happy TT!

When you have those: family safe and sound and the Word of God..what more is there? So glad for a safe arrival. Blessings to you today!
Oh, my sweet friend and sista! You know that I am agreeing with you for your daughter, as well as my son! God hears our cries and He knows our heart!
It is going to happen for both of us...I believe it with all my heart!
I pray daily...Lord, you know where he is and what he is doing. You know what it will take for him to turn his life around and come back to you. You know how far to push him and what will be too far. You know his every thought, his ungodly friends and their influences in his life. I ask you now to destroy every ungodly relationship that he has with friends...not just break the ties but destroy them. You know that he was raised in a godly home and to love you with all his heart. Your Word says to "Train up a child in the way that he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it". So, Lord, I ask you to right now...invade his every thought, his sleep, his dreams and let there be not one ounce of peace in his life until he returns to you. Bring back to his memory the scriptures that he has memorized, the sermons he has heard and all the church camp experiences that he has been a part of. Shine your love deep into his heart and remove the blinders from his eyes. Show yourself to him in a very real way today. Protect him physically from sickness, disease and death but beyond that...break him, Lord. Lord, you know that I would lay down my life today, if I knew that it would cause Brandon to turn from his wicked ways, but only you know what it will take. Lord, I am willing to do that if it means spending eternity with my son in heaven one day. I trust you to do whatever it takes to bring him back to you.
Email me sometime...my email is on my profile.
Love you, my friend and standing with you int he gap!
What a wonderful post! I, too, am so thankful for the Word. No matter what happens to us, there is something in the Word that we can stand on.
Debra,
So thankful for you and your loving heart. Glad Josh made it safely.

Mimi
