I thought since it seems are lives are so difficult and sometimes on the negative side. Maybe we might just start acknowledging blessings each day. Maybe this will help us keep ourselves from falling into all the negative. Like today I am blessed because I noticed my patience is getting better. I hope you all can see at least one blessing a day. Even though we have many we sometimes don't think about or see. May God Bless.
I am so thankful that You are in control of my enemies and those who love me. Thank you Lord for Your protection even when I didn't know I needed it. Most of all, thank You for helping me to forgive those who have hurt me because I know it was not by my own strength, but Yours.
I ask You Lord to heal every dry area in my life, but all those who are on this forum in the name of Jesus. I will also ask of You to help me to hear of what You ask and the courage to do it. Give us Your daily bread and have Your way in our lives the only way You can. We believe You for it. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen and Amen 🙏🙌👏
DH and I have had to do work in the city, it is always tough with the work, keeping Mom safe, and other responsibilities, high stress level for me. So I thank the Lord for helping me endure and for keeping us all safe.
I am thankful that we woke up this morning. I am thankful for a house to keep cool in from the heat as there are so many that don't have that luxury.
And mostly for our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:
Psalms 50:14
Thank You LORD!
Psalms 107:8
Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
It is always a difficult day. However this year was better than the last. So healing is happening. I was preparing dinner and Mom was sitting in the living room with AB. She just started talking about my Dad. Then she started telling the story of how he died. I was in the kitchen and I just started crying, I miss my Daddy. But I know I will see him again. AB listened and she was happy to be telling him about their life together. It was good.
What I am thankful for this day, is that the Lord got us through it, that the Lord is healing us, and that the Lord put AB right there fro My Mom, as HE knew I would have lost it.
Most importantly I am thankful that Jesus Christ died for me, for us all. For HE is our hope and access to the Father.
Thank you Lord God Almighty!
“The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.”
Proverbs 28:1
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
Psalms 95:2
Big hug to you
I sure hope he would be proud.
I am thankful to the Lord, that HE gave me rest last night. A full nights rest, Oh blissful Morning.
I am thankful that HE allowed us to take Mom and AB on an outing today and that he hedged us about and kept us safe.
I am thankful For Jesus, most of all.
Thank you Lord God Almighty, for your matchless love.
“Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?”
Job 12:9
I was able to finally get the living room painted. I had primed it about a year ago, and had yet to put the color on, so since it was hot I did not feel like being outside much, so I said I am gonna paint. Yay finally got it done.
AB received his deposit back from his former rent house. So yay that is all done.
I am getting all the details for Moms birthday ironed out, so yay that is getting done.
I know these are small things, but I am ever so thankful, as they have been some of my load.
I thank you Dear Father in Heaven for all things great and small. But coming from you all things are great.
Most of all I thank you for Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. It is my hearts desire to be like HIM.
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
1 John 4:18
Have an awesome time and enjoy your time, no thinking about caregiving or anything else except relaxing, recharging and having a grand holiday.
Thank you! That August 18th post I don't even know what made me write it...it was just how I felt...what came to mind!
To me...it is the little things that count.
And Smeshque I love reading your post on this thread it always speaks to me in some way. So thank you for starting this thread.😄💕🌠
Had a good day of worship and praise.
I am thankful to be so blessed.
A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
Proverbs 18:24
So I am going back to work and last Friday I did my drug test. Well with Mom's birthday coming up, I was so hoping not to start back until after labor day, which is her birthday.
I have been praying Lord if it is possible, which I know all things are with you, please work it out so I don't have to start back until next week.
And my friends God is faithful and loving and merciful to me this day, and every.
This morning I got a text from my boss saying could I come get the paperwork and go do my drug test again, because they had a fluke of mixed up numbers at the lab and I had to take it again as they disposed of several samples.
Hallelujah!!!!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
It was no fluke but the Lord's hand working in my life to answer my prayer.
Oh how a load has been taken off and I have been dancing around like a crazy person. So thankful and praises be to God.
I can relax this week and not stress about her birthday and all the things I needed to do.
Thank you Jesus.
YAY!!!!!!!!!? If I could do a cartwheel I would be flipping all over the place.
Guess I will go skip, always been too scared to do cartwheels.
I am holding on to this joy of the Lord, for it is my strength.
Thank you Lord for him.
Frazzled- they are a blessing aren't they?
Snoopy- Thank you for the reminder, I do not think we thank the Lord enough that He has blessed us with the Bible, His sacred words, that we can wrap ourselves up in.
Shell- you starting a new job? I too am going back to work. Blessings abound.
To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
Jude 25
You are right...blessings all around. I know the Lord gave me this job and I am so grateful!
Let us praise Him and give Him the glory.
I am thankful that my DH tore the eaves off the back of our house(he repaired back) to rescue a baby pigeon, that either the hawks got both its parents or the dove hunters last weekend. Hungry lil bird, I fed him. Trying to see if one of our other hens that has a baby will adopt him, will know tomorrow.
I am thankful that we have a nice cool house to have Mom out of the heat.
I am thankful for the bounty of food we are blessed with.
I am thankful for all the beauty of God I see daily.
I am thankful I am blessed to be the one to be here for Mom and was here for Dad.
I am most thankful for God's word, that came in the flesh, and died for me, Jesus the Christ our Saviour and Lord.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:57
I actually felt really good today and had minimal stress of which I am so thankful.
And the baby pigeon we rescued yesterday we put in our loft and one of the adult pigeons adopedd it and is feeding it. YAY!!!
I am so glad. I was feeding it and last night we just wanted to see if any of the others would adopt him.
Feeding the baby pigeon brought back fond memories of being little and helping Dad feed the baby pigeons, if something happened to their parents or whatever the sitaution was. i am glad he taught me how, for times like these. But I remember he and I sitting with a baby pigeon in our laps and feeding them. I miss him. But he is always in my heart and thank the Lord I will see him again.
“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;”
