Tag: Thankful Thursday

This passage kept coming to mind this week. “Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication make your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethern, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and…

I knew that I needed to participate this week even though my blogging time is limited. You see, I’m not feeling happy, nor am I feeling thankful right now. This week has been rough with Munchkin being ill, and I’m starting to feel ill. But, I knew that if I started thinking about what I was thankful for this week, my mood would change… I am so very grateful for my wonderful Heavenly Father who gives me the strength and patience that I have needed this week. “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I…

This week’s Thankful Thursday post will be brief — not because I lack things to be thankful for, but because of one of the things that I am thankful for. I am thankful for my very precious daughter. This week has had its ups and downs, but we really have had a good week overall. The Lord has blessed me with a child that has a huge heart.

“The name of the Lord is like a strong tower. Godly people run to it and are safe.” Proverbs 18:10 I’m thankful for this beautiful verse that started out our school week. Munchkin is now keeping a verse journal. She’s writing down the verses that stick out as special for us as we go through our lessons. I’m thankful that I was able to pick up the Prairie Primer very inexpensively. It’s been wonderful to watch Munchkin light up and really look forward to the daily readings and lessons. I’m thankful for the caring spirit of my daughter. She’s been…

” And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13 I have spent more time alone this week than I have in a while. Munchkin has been at VBS in the morning (and loving it), so I’ve spent the mornings by myself (minus my doctor’s appt.). I’ve been able to read more and spend more time with the Lord. I do believe that because of this the devil decided that he was going to attack me. I felt the pull of sadness and loneliness try to kick in. When…
