I have decided that this week I would join in this great opportunity to join some awesome ladies in counting our blessings and turning our minds to the things that we have to be thankful for. So, this week’s theme is “basics” and I have a few to list.
1. I am so very thankful for my dad. He is there for me when I call and willing to listen at the times when I just need to talk. He prays for me often and loves my children and is an example to them. I am often times reminded that not everyone has that relationship with their dad. He is an amazing Godly man and I am so blessed to call him my dad.
2. My family is a great blessing. I have a husband that loves me and shows me that often. He loves our children and takes the time to nurture them and train them in a Godly way. He provides for our family and seeks God’s will for us. When I am so caught up in the emotion of a certain situation he has the ability and clarity of mind to make decisions for us and according to God’s will.
3. My home and health. We have an occasional illness but overall we are healthy. We have a home, be it not super fancy or huge, but it meets our needs and keeps us warm. Thank you God that we have a house that can be a place of safety and refuge from this hurtful world we live in.
4. I am so thankful today and always for my God and His grace. It is not only for our time of salvation, His grace is sufficient everyday and in everything. Praise you Father, for you love us and care for us.
Thank you for reading my list and I hope that you will be reminded of how many things we have to be thankful for even in these tough times.
I love the new blog look :)
