Thankful Thursday

Posted in Family

Laurie at Woman Taking a Stand is hosting this week’s Thankful Thursday.

For the first weekend in a very long time, we were able to spend quality time together as a family.  We were able to reconnect and just enjoy being a family.

I feel blessed that we were able to spend the weekend enjoying God’s creation.  We felt so small compared to the glorious landscape around us. 

I’m amazed at all the Lord has given to us.  He could have made this earth boring and bland, but instead He made this earth stunning.  He cares so much about us that He wanted to make our surroundings enjoyable.  How can we not want to glorify Him when we look at His creation.

I am grateful that one day I will be able to meet our Creator thanks to the ultimate sacrifice.  Christ offered Himself for us.  God offered His Son for us.  Thank you Lord for saving my soul.  Thank you for blessing us in our temporary home here on earth.  Thank you for your wondrous creation to remind us of your greatness.

I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works. Psalm 9:1

    Yes, God's creation is awesome. Sometimes we take it for granted and yet it is so beautiful. Photography helps me to recognize its beauty and to be thankful. I agree with you about being thankful for Jesus who has saved us from our sins. Happy Thankful Thursday to you.
