Posted in Thankful Thursday

Today I am mainly thankful for the strength God has given me to get up and go even with the obstacles in the way.

• I thank God that He is the WayMaker. No matter what comes or goes....He will make a way for me.
• I thank God that He is the PeaceSpeaker. No matter the chaos that tries to surround me when He says "Peace be still" everything, anything must obey!
• I thank God for the chance to tell others of His goodness.
• I am thankful that I am what I am by the Grace of God! I am not where I should be in my walk with Him but I thank Him that I am not where I used to be. I am pressing forward.
• I thank Him for the ability He has given me to "press on" toward that mark.
• I thank God for good health in me and my children.
• I thank God for a full tank of gas:) Freely given to me...What a blessing.
• I thank God for mercy- without His mercy I would be forever lost in sin. He had mercy on me even in my darkest sinful state and forgave me of unthinkable sins.  I thank God that He is teaching me to be merciful to others.
• I thank God for godly friends who will give godly council. When you give up (let go) of the old life, it is good to surround yourself ( allow yourself to be surrounded) with other believers so that when the valleys come, and they will, your friends are there to encourage you in the Lord . I have had many friends in times past that did not try to give Godly council. These freindships, the goldy ones, are not to be taken for granted. Thank you Lord for brothers and sisters in You!
• I thank God for vacation time. It is arriving fast upon us and I thank Him for making a way for us to go and be together as a family.
• I thank God for Thankful Thursday for it reminds me to be thankful, to remember to count my blessings, to give God thanks for all He has done, all he is doing for me and for others.
