I know I haven't been on here in a few weeks. There's been much going on here in our home. Too much to blog on and not enough time lately. I have missed being able to get on here but at the same time I have enjoyed the "family time" this last week.
Anyway I am on today because I do want to share a few of the things I am thankful to my Lord for.
So there it is. I know there is more but I am pressed for time...again. I must get myself and the children ready for tonights service. Please remember to keep my husband and his family in prayer. The funeral for his grandmother will be held tomorrow evening at our church. Oh yea, Iris...Thank You for hosting Thankful Thursday. You are a blessing to the blogging community and I am sure to many others as well. Anyway I am on today because I do want to share a few of the things I am thankful to my Lord for.
- I am thankful for the wonderful visit last week with my older brother and his beautiful family. Our children did so good together and we had such a good time going on nature walks and to the beach, crabbing, laughing, remembering the old days when we were the kids, and just all sorts of stuff. He spent Easter with us and that just made my weekend. It was such a blessing to visit with him (and his family) and it was right on time.
- I am thankful that we have peace in the death of a dear loved one for we know where they will spend eternity. My husbands grandmother passed away this past Monday. I thank God that only a little over a month ago my husband was blessed enough to be able to baptize her. She was 90 yrs old. Please keep his family in your prayers.
- I am thankful for my oldest brother. He called and gave us the news that he finally got signed with a recording label. He has been in the music business for many years and has recently crossed over (or back to) Christian music. PRAISE GOD! I thank God for the talents He has blessed our family with.
- I am thankful to have so many brothers. Today is one of my younger brothers B-day. Happy Birthday Jeff (in case you actually read my blog LOL)
- I thank God for strength. I thank God He is my Rock. When there is nowhere else to turn to I can always go to Him. He accepts me just as I am. He knows me inside and out, the good, the bad and the ugly and loves me anyway. I thank God that He is patient with me and although I falter and fail him, He never gives up on me.
- I thank God for blogger friends who take the time to read and comment and leave encouraging words not only to me but to all the others out there that need it. Sometimes it's the simple hello that makes a day seem brighter to that one who needs a little sunshine in the midst of a rainy day. Ya'll are such a blessing.
- I thank God for my children. Each one with their own personality. I thank God for the differences in each one of them, for their strengths and weaknesses. I thank God for the way each of them learn differently. How one loves to sing, one loves to play music, one loves science and that little one...well he likes it all.
Be blessed,
Stacy
