Thankful Thursday


I am thankful for My God who supplies all my needs according to HIS riches and glory!
What so ever you have need of ask and it shall be given to you...


Beloveds breakfast cookies...via oat meal on special , brown sugar reduced due to thanksgiving baking, A second box Baggies (when I ran out) stored from when I got them cheep. Eggs; buy one get one free special. A wonderful oven to bake them in and the tools to do it with quality. A husband who appreciates my efforts and holds me with the glee of a boy with a cookie (or three).


Thankful for the energy to clean all the dishes and such when I need to. Dish soap for $1. a bottle for the good stuff at the big lot store.

Insurance to go to the doctor and the appointment was a walk in and I was out in just under an hour. Rx in hand. The funds he supplies to get the medications I need for a U.T.I. say ouch and scream! :)

I am grateful that those medications cleared up enough of the pain to get a good 80% of the laundry done.


I am appreciative that not only the needs but an unknown want even. These match the crystal I have and they were at the lot store for $2 each!

And you know seeing all that laundry! Well I prayed for a chance to get some of the laundry soap that is the common old type, You know across the country they are no longer going to sell it like this. The soap is now very concentrated and we will need to dilute it our selfs. This is normally $6-8 a bottle I got it for $2.70, They even had the type I needed the free and clear. We have a home with allergies and asthma. I got 8 of them. I asked God to make a way for me to still find a nice store of them for the next several months. I spent 20. for at least 6 months laundry soap! God is so generous to us!

We had a wonderful play date yesterday at the home of a Mom of two adopted kids. We have had one here before and she and her family also are just newly attending the little neighborhood church we just started going to. What a sweet family. Debbie if our out there thank you again for such pleasant hospitality. We all had a nice time.
The fellowship is really great. Seeing you all at church has been such a sweet gift.

I appreciate all the wonderful decorations that I have had the privilege to acquire over the years. I am having fun today putting them all up. I'll post pictures later.

What simple, yet wonderful things to be thankful for! I too am thankful for those bargains I often find.

Donetta, you are a very thrifty lady...the Prov 31 lady. i really appreciate this responsible spending and trying to get your money 's worth.

Many people don 't care. my sister who lives in Canada is also like that.People around her are not.

Good example.

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
