ThankFul ThursDay !

 Grateful to God for providing my husband with a new job !

Thankful to share a scripture with my children and us study it and meditate on it and memorize it together!

Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be Strong and of a good courage, be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest!

Honored to be a Sunday School Teacher and I'm excited that my son is coming in soon at the beginning of the church year into my classroom. Some of my fondest memories are teaching my daughter and "her age group" now those children are the teens in our youth group, and they are a great group of kids....God has got big plans for them !

Thankful to God for blessing me with so many friends and family in this life. Just received a call from an old friend / mentor and how special it is to share with each other in the family of God!

God has been stirring my heart toward becoming the servant He wants me to be and in a few situations, His Spirit has confirmed some callings and direction for my life, thank you Lord that even when I don't understand, I am learning I still don't TRUST you, thank you for showing me how!

Jennifer Rothschild quoted that it takes just as much faith to bear a burden as it does to believe it can be removed. God is showing me being an intercessor doesn't mean that I'm involved to the point I speak for God, just to Him about the situation....He's the one in control.

Romans 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, His ways are past finding out!

Thankful for my husband's 40th birthday this month. We've been married 21 years this Christmas and God has been more gracious to us than we deserve.

Thankful God saved our son this year. Back on May 10, 2010 Jonathan prayed to receive Christ as His Savior. My family was made complete in heaven by the cross and Christ's blood on Calvary that night.

Sometimes the place you've feared for years takes you to a place of beauty......that place for me was called surrender.....slowly piece by piece of my heart and my life is chipped away and God uses the ashes of that life to bring beauty from it. Only a sovereign God can do such things.........

O Give Thanks unto the Lord for He is Good and His Mercy Endureth Forever!
