THANKFUL THURSDAY!

Welcome to Thankful Thursday again this week! If you'd like to participate, just stop by Sony'a Blog, Truth 4 The Journey, to sign up! Next write down five things you are thankful for this week. Finally, link up with Mr. Linky at her blog. It's that easy!


Here's my list:

1) I'm thankful for my friend, Pete. He is a true brother in Christ and a dear friend who offers wise counsel and a strong shoulder to cry on.

2) I'm thankful for my friend, Kelly. She is a wonderful encourager and sweet friend.

3) I'm thankful for my friend, Andrea. Not enough I can say about her--sister, friend, "co-conspirator," visionary and a huge heart!

4) I'm thankful for my husband - yep, he's on the list again:-) He has taken over his mother's financial and health affairs since her stroke, adding to his already full plate of responsibilities. He has been grace-filled through it all and I just know when he get's to heaven he's going to have several years in a hot tub, watching a big screen tv (as wide as the sky) and no one reminding him where he needs to be or what he needs to do:-) into eternity.

5) I'm thankful my son will start his job next week! YAY! He has worked so hard to acquire the training he needs and has matured so very much in the past year. I don't know who is more excited-him or us!

My bonus item on the list this week is my Lord and Savior. I am ever breathless at the marvels of His mercy and love! He is so faithful in our lives and I am so thankful for His gift of grace.

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

Blessings on your journey,
Mary

THANKFUL THURSDAY!

After you read my list, stop by Sonya's blog, Truth 4 The Journey to see who else has participated in Thankful Thursday.

1) I’m thankful that 4 other women and I will be meeting for twice a month bible study beginning in March.

2) I’m thankful for the opportunities to serve the community God is placing in my path. I met with a group from Spotlight Richmond and will begin working with them to promote Operation Community Kindness.

3) I’m thankful for the Ash Wednesday service I attended last night. We sang one of my favorite hymns, I Surrender All.

4) I'm thankful that I have been invited to walk in the evenings with a friend. We just realized we lived 2 block away from each other!

5) I'm thankful for my God's love. He continues to do the deep work in me that I long for. As I offer up each wound and doubt, He directs my eyes to the Cross, where His Son died for me.
