Thankful Thursday #14

Thankful Thursday at Truth 4 the Journey

Don't you just love Thursdays? I look forward each week to joining Sonya at Truth 4 the Journey for Thankful Thursday. Here are my five:

  1. Thank You God for the words, "Cancer Free" for my friend Debbie. Father I thank you that she knows you, loves you, and gives You all the glory each step of the way.
  2. Thank You God for blogging friends who have a passion to pray for those in need. Via the Internet the needs at time are so many, but the prayer warriors rise up and take the needs directly to the throne. What a awesome privilege to participate and see You respond in all of your glory.
  3. Thank You God for the promises that flood Your Word. For every need there is a promise, a hope, a word of encouragement that shouts out to my heart just how much you love me. May I live to bring you glory.
  4. Thank You God for White Rock Fellowship. Oh how I've missed the closeness of a church family. You have heard my hearts cry and responded in a big way. May Your glory shine as I seek to serve you.
  5. Thank You God for the trials that turn into opportunities to minister. Teach me Lord to not ask why, but instead to ask you to show me how this can be used to your glory.

How about you? What are you thankful for this week?

I'm thankful first for salvation through Jesus Christ, for His Word that is as current today as when it was written,for my sweet Christian husband, for my children and grandchildren, for health, for my home, my church, my friends, and
for the freedom we still have in America.

Love ya!

Lisa,
Thank you for your prayers for me as I care for my mother. Thank you for reminding me that God truly does work through the 'internet'. Christians are united even when we are not holding hands physically! I am so encouraged that God gave placed you at a church fellowship where you are encouraged. I know He will receive all the glory from what you are there to do and be.
And I find that I am so blessed by your posts to me. I do want to get to know you better. Thanks for loving me, Lisa. ~ linda
