Thankful for Today

Today I am thankful I have a Heavenly Father

that hears and answers my prayers. He draws

near to me when I seek Him and His will.

He comforts me in my sorrows and fills my

heart with Love!

May you find joy and peace in your day!

had an experience with The Lord Jesus Christ,

that has absolutely Transformed their life."

Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful for all of you that visited my granddaughter, Morgan's blog yesterday and left such sweet and encouraging words to her. I talked with her last night and she was so happy and thankful for each of the ladies that left a comment. It's hard theses days for teenagers to live their lives out for Christ. They do need all the encouragement they can get. Encouraging one another and praying for each other is a ministry to God!

Thanks!

"we will give ourselves continually to prayer,

and to the ministry to the word."

Acts 6:4

Have a Blessed Day!

Thankful Thursday

We have so much to be thankful for everyday!

I am so thankful that we were spared so much

of the bad weather Monday and yesterday!

High winds, thunder storms and tornado warnings most of the day.

I didn't get any photo's, we mainly stayed inside.

Praying for all the ones that were in the path of the tornado's,

thunder storms and high winds.

Lots of trees down and homes destroyed by lightening.  

God is Good!

Have a Blessed Day!

My Blogaversary !

It's April

the month for Easter

and

It's my 5 years blogging!

I want to thank all my blogging followers and those that reads my blog, for

your friendship and all the encouraging comments

you have blessed me with for the last 5 years. All

the cards, gifts and prayers when I was going through tough times.

Special thanks to Michele at Nest at Finch Rest and Cindy Baum at Letters from Midlife for

encouraging me to blog and helping me get started, we were friends years before I started blogging . There were so many of you that

helped me to learn what and how to do or fix things at first that I wouldn't have time to name

all of you, but you know who you are.

I started my blog to share my Love of family, my faith and my home!

My hope is that you have found some encouragement here and will continue to grow in God's Grace.

My how time has flown by!

Thanks!

Thanks and Love to you all!

Have a Blessed Day!

New Month

Have a Blessed February!

When we Cry for Help

"How gracious the Lord will be when you cry for help".

Isaiah 30:19

After the weekend of Tornado's in our state and in the county where I live, we are to have a day of sunshine and temperature's in the 50's.

These are just a couple of photo's taken a few miles from where I live. They believe it was a tornado, it should be determined today .

God is so good and spared my neighborhood from any real damage. We had lots of rain and high winds.

In the Southern part of Georgia, there were so much damage, a whole trailer park was demolished and as of now 4 people lost their lives there. In another town 11 people lost their lives.

This morning my devotion touched my heart and reminded me that when we "cry out to God", He is ready to hear our cry and help.

Isaiah30:18-19

" the Lord longs to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion...How gracious he will be when you cry for help!."

Many people today are crying out and looking for someone to help. God often looks to His people to answer their cries. It is a privilege to be the hands of God as we respond on His behalf to the cries for help. Even when we aren't able to do, we can always lift our voices up in prayer.

"Lord you are always ready to show compassion,

remind me today, that I can be an instrument for you,and show compassion when you give me the

opportunity. May I see it when you do and answer

the cry!"

Amen

May your day be Blessed!
