Thankful Thursday


For the Lord my God in my midst is mighty.
His banner over me is his love. I shall fear not evil. His pinions they cover me . He is all I need, my soul sufficiency. He is all I need. In the waking hours and yet while I rest He has given His angles charge over me. Lest I should error and stumble in my choices and actions. Even in low places. He know me. He has know me before these very earthly foundations. The poor we shall always have with us, I do not without my hand, nor do I turn my face from the needy.
Children cry out in silence those around this globe and those whose lives will be touched today as I smile upon them and as I gently touch a wherry shoulder. They suffer in homes ill equipped to love, for the parents themselves may never have even know what it is to be loved. Their faces flash before me and compassion overflows me for them . Removing the big ID of my own self even if only for a flash time. That flash a light , the light of love that removes all fear and trepidation.
I am my beloveds and he is mine. I have over my life a banner a waving flag of Love. That banner I fix my gaze on as I Struggle on over the bones of dead men and women, who have fought beside and before me. Fighting at the front. Willing to raise up that banner to follow and lead into the courageous battle at hand.
Like in glory the courage does not fault or halter for I know for what I fight for.
Jesus your all I need. My soul sufficency. My strenghth when I am wherry.

I second that Amen! Amen again! He is our strength the bible says---He is our strong tower...the righteous runneth into and are safe!

Donetta---we are safe in HIM!

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."
