Thankful Thursday

|



Oh my, so very much to be thankful for this week but my body is exhausted and my brain is mush tonight. So.... not sure if any of this will be comprehend-able. However, I'm determined to get together my Thankful Thursday post. After all, regardless of whether it makes sense on paper or not, God knows exactly what I mean! (thank goodness!)

This week I am thankful for....

* Strength from God to lift us up when we are tired!

* My children and their love for God! If you haven't stopped by this week and seen
this post, go check it out and you'll know exactly what I mean.

* My first full year of blogging! What a great experience filled with new friendships.

* A sunny, beautiful day today!

* Each new day that I am able to wake up and experience!

* Time spent with God.


What are you thankful for today? Join in and tell us all the many ways God has bless you this week!

Hey sweet Melanie... I don't get to visit as often as I like too... You are right about sharing...we just have to share even if our brains are mush (which is about 95% of the time for me :)

Time with God is probably one of the greatest blessings a person could have and it's a shame more folks don't know that. Your list is great and it doesn't even seem "mushy." Have a great night!
