the water that just overflowed from the laundry basin while the washer was rinsing and overflowed all over the lanudry room floor (again... yes, this is seeming to be a theme... I'm off to clean... again... with a happy heart... yes, the sarcasm is dripping, but I'm really trying.)
Lord, thank You for everything You give me... for even when I don't know why, I know You have a plan, and I willingly accept what You decide for me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
(Read the story that inspired "Thorny Thank Yous", and please leave a comment thanking God for the thorns in your life today as well.)
Oh My Stars! Big Big Big Hugs! That very thing happened to me, two Decembers ago..... with a new baby to boot..... Hang in there! Hugs hugs and a few more hugs!
As I read this it comes to mind that the Lord is trying to teach all of us Acceptance With Joy...have you ever read Hinds Feet on High Places? Thank you Lord for washing machines even when they overflow - otherwise we would be doing it all by hand!
and a woman seeking the Lord's Will (daily), a wife (striving to keep the romance alive), a "Smamma" (Step- mother) of one and a homeschooling mom of seven (I was never going to have children), who starts every day over (after messing SOME thing up the day before), knowing God's grace is overflowing (just like my laundry), and so thankful He's blessed me more than I'll ever deserve.
