Thankful Thursday - Random

A lot floating around in my head today; like Iris, I felt a random post would be totally appropriate...

Today, I am thankful for...
  • The washing of the Word, and it's transforming power in my life.
  • The way this book is speaking to me. - I am learning so much about "self-feeding", and journaling the scriptures.
  • The wonderful mentors that God has placed in mine and KISA's lives.
  • Sweet friends that love me enough to speak truth into my life, even when it may not be easy to hear.
  • The call that God has placed on my (our) life(s) - Words cannot describe what it feels like to be pursuing my destiny in Christ, and the continued words/acts of confirmation He is pouring out on me (us).
  • My wonderful husband - He loves me even when I am ugly, prideful, and selfish. He loves me enough to want what is best for me, and never hesitate to come to my rescue.
  • This song (lyrics here) on my Steve Fee CD, that I woke singing this morning - Thank you Jesus, that my chains are undone, and I can lift my head, my eyes, and my hands in praise to you!
Dear God,
No matter what I once was, I have been washed,
I have been sanctified, and I have been justified
in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
and by the Spirit of our God! (1 Corinthians 6:11)

What are you thankful for today? Please join us at Sting My Heart, we'd love to have you!

I love that song - it is a wonderful praise song. Yes - He set us free - let the enemy not tell us different.

I am so glad that you have found a book that is helping you journaling your journey.

Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.

Be blessed today and always...

I love your habit of openly practising thankfulness. I've started up my prayer journal again (after I'd deserted it for over a month) and it amazes me, once I get started, how easily I can fill a page with things I'm thankful for before I even get to the requests and petitions!!!

Hey Susanne,

Sorry I'm so late getting over here. Hope your day continued to be a worshipful and thankful one.

Loved the song.

You have such a sweet and grateful spirit. Thanks for stopping by and putting a smile on my face♥
