I'm thinking this will be my regular Friday post. TGoF! Thank God on Friday! I also challenge any readers to this with me. List ten things that you are thankful for, other than the obvious. Really think about your list. Here is mine...
I am thankful for/that
#1 God was holding my husband in His hands on Sunday when he crashed his motorcycle.
#2 we live in a country (even outside the US) in which we are able to worship our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ, not in fear but with joy.
#3 my boys are healthy, happy and thriving.
#4 my husband has a secure job.
#5 the internet. Honestly, it is a necessity living here.
#6 my patience is getting better.
#7 Joshua is finally figuring out the potty thing.
#8 I have amazing friends.
#9 a great family (even my in-laws!).
#10 God puts up with me and all the junk I do and still loves me for me!
Some verses to think about...
Psalm 7:17
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.
Psalm 35:18
I will give you thanks in the great assembly; among throngs of people I will praise you.
Luke 22:19
And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me."
1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Wow! Italy!
ReplyDeleteI am thankful for so much today! Our health, our safety,Easter,improvement in my son's behavior,etc,etc...
I learned (AFTER my child was potty trained) that it really was HIS accomplishment and he would do it when we was ready.
ReplyDeleteIt was at 3 years and 2 months, but it was his accomplishment, as we were GLAD he reached that milestone. Whenever I would complain to my pediatrician he would always say "He won't start kindergarten in diapers--I promise." He was right, but it still made me mad.
Thank you for the coffee! I hope you experience a Christ filled Easter!
Thanks for sharing your list. Glad your husband is okay.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend.
Thanks for the Italian coffee tonight!! It's rainy here in Spokane, WA and I needed the extra cup of coffee to warm up. I am envious of your living in Italy. I would LOVE to be living overseas again....since my husband retired from the AF last May, I've been grounded from a lot of travel and I'm missing it.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a wonderful weekend and enjoy next week! blessings to you~
