Thankful in the Month of November (Day25-27 )

Thankful Day 25:  I am thankful for a nice meal on Thanksgiving Day.  It has been 12 years since my loving mother went to heaven.  I made on of her dishes chicken-n-pastry.  My mother made her dumplings from scratch the night before Thanksgiving.  I have not been that brave yet!!!(maybe next year)
So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31



Thankful Day 26:  I am thankful for the sunrise. Friday morning I saw the sunrise and it was beautiful.  The sunrise is a gift that the Lord gives us each day and sometime I forget the beauty that is portrays.  To me the sunrise is the glory of the Lord that blankets us to show us his awesome power and glory.
 
It is he who sits above the circle of the earth,and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers;who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,and spreads them like a tent to dwell in; Isaiah 40:22
 
 
 

Thankful Day 27:  I am thankful for trusting in the Lord.  The Lord is the truth that I place my faith in.  Sometimes in life I want something but the Lord does not want me to have it right now so I being to worry and get very impatient at this season of my life I am learning that everything is on the Lords time table not on my sinful task of wanting it now.
 
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,and do not lean on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5

Thankful in the Month of November (Day24 )

Thankful Day 24:  I am thankful for Christian music.  I love the two radio stations we have in Robeson County that plays wonderful Christian music and Focus on the Family 100.9 and 105.7. 

Also I want to share a book that I will be adding to my collection.  Yesterday I heard Susie Larson on Focus on the Family and she was so encouraging and uplifting to moms.  I would encourage you to add this book to your mommy collection.



This is the description of the book:  In Growing Grateful Kids, Susie Larson shows parents how to instill the virtues of thankfulness, gratefulness, and patience in their children. Using anecdotes, simple language, and biblical applications, she teaches moms and dads importance of emphasizing virtue over materialism. Paperback.


Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! Psalm 95:1

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, Galatians 5:22

Thankful in the Month of November (Day 19)

Thankful Day 19:  I am thankful for the smiles on my girls face.  Today we were dancing in our new little house (Channings's parents guest house) and we had so much fun laughing and dancing to the Elmo song.
