Wordless... *wait*....Wonderful Wednesday

I know that today is usually Wordless Wednesday, but today I'm going to do something different.

Today is my Birthday...the Big * 26* and boy do I feel everyone of those years...

I wanted to be able to tell all the WONDERFUL things In my life that I am thankful for on my birthday.

I AM THANKFUL FOR.....

1) My Salvation!

I'm very thankful that God sent his son to die on the cross to save me, even though I do not in anyway

deserve it. (John 3:16)

2) My husband...he truely is my best friend, my lover and my rock. We have been through some really

rough times, and even when I was hard to Love....he loved me anyways. He is an example of a great

father and best friend, I love him with all my heart, and I LOVE submitting to him in obedience to God

(Ephesians 5:22 &24)

3) My children... They have been such a blessing to me truely in all things. I wish sometimes I had

the courage they do, the energy they do, and the ability to forgive and forget like they do cause

sometimes as adults its so easy to hold a grudge if we are not careful. They have always loved me

despite my past. (Proverbs 31:28) I am very thankful that God has blessed me with them.

4) My Parents... I love the fact that my parents are so Godly and I am very fortunate that I have parents

that are saved and live a Godly life, and when my kids go over there I know that there will be clean

stuff on T.V or that they will pray with them before they eat, or before bed time. I grew up with the verse

(Ephesians 6:1) that says Children Obey your parents in the Lord, for this is RIGHT...

and I'm glad that they taught me these things at a young age so that when I had children I could instill

those values they handed off to me in my kids.

5) My Church...I'm very thankful that I have a wonderful Independent, fundamental Baptist Church

that I can go and worship in regularly. I consider it my second home because I am there almost as much

as I am at home. I love my Pastor and his Wife. They really are a blessing to me and my family.

I know that when I was looking for a good church in this area, and I opened that phone book, God lead

me right to the page where the add of LIGHTHOUSE BAPTIST CHURCH was. THANK YOU JESUS.

This church has showed me so much in my daily life as I grow in the Lord.

6) My Friends...  I don't have many people in my life that I can truely call my friends but this I know for sure

The friends I do have I am very thankful for them, because I know they have the same views as me, and

I know that they wouldn't try to pressure me to do something that I didn't want to. They truely are

*HEAVEN SENT*   and praise the Lord I have someone I can go to if I need anything at all. (John 15:13)

6) My Family...I have such a great Family...My family has been there for me through thick and thin. They

have never judged me for things I have done in the past. They have always been there to lean on when

I needed them. God knew exactly what I needed in a family and thats why I was chose to be a part of it.

I am thankfull for alot of other things in my life such as God's blessings, my home, food to eat, and

for clothes on my families and my back. There are so many things in life to be thankful

for and people just don't noticed them right away. Tell me dear friends and readers

HOW MANY THINGS ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR IN YOUR LIFE. WOULD THEY BRING

GLORY TO GOD, OR WOULD THEY BE THINGS THAT BRING GLORY TO THE WORLD????

I leave you all here to think about all of these things to ponder and maybe you can post on

your next blog what you are thankful for.
