Thankful Thursday-The Power Of Prayer

    Hello everyone, welcome to another Thankful Thursday. Much thanks to this month's hostess Iris. She wrote on her blog, about how thankful she is for the power of prayer. I totally agree, prayer is a very powerful weapon. In my arsenal of defensive weapons, prayer is the mightiest, and most used one.I have stormed the gates of heaven many times praying for my loved ones, and friends. Never doubt the power of prayer.  Prayer warriors are the ones I want on my side, covering me with their faithful prayers. Battle on warriors!! I would rather be down on my knees praying, than standing tall, being satan's prey. Do not just pray, when you need, or want something. Pray without ceasing, thank God for the many blessings you have in your life. Pray, pray, pray. Just watch what God can, and will do.

Word-Filled Wednesday

Amen, Jesus is all that I need. He is my yesterday, my tomorrow, and my future.  He is my true physician, and my healer. With Jesus, I have it all, without Him, I have nothing.

In Other Words Tuesday

“We are women, and my plea is,
‘Let me be a woman, holy through and through,
asking for nothing, but what God wants to give me,
receiving with both hands, and
with all my heart, whatever that is.’ ”

~ Elisabeth Elliot    Amen, I love this quote. I truly do, want to be a holy woman, through, and through. I do not want to constantly be asking God for things, but, I want to willingly be ready, to accept what God wants to give me. Hands uplifted toward heaven, ready to receive with both hands, His gracious love offerings to me.  With all of my heart, I will be extremely thankful for whatever, He may choose to bless me with.

Thankful Thursday

Hello everyone, and welcome to another Thankful Thursday. Today, I am very thankful for understanding hearts. The last couple of weeks, have been really hard on me physically, and emotionally. I feel like I am taking steps backward in my stroke recovery. I honestly, feel totally drained. My entire body constantly hurts. When I go to get up out of a chair, or out of my bed, it takes forever, and I hurt. My head hurts alot, not like a headache, but very sore on the outside of my head. My speech is slurred, sounds like I have been drinking. Another thing that has been happening, that scares me, is I think things have happened, that never happened.  Yesterday, when Eddie got home, he said I got really upset with him, and told him, that he had hurt my feelings. I remember saying that to him, and I thought, I remembered why I was upset with him. I thought, I was sitting on our bed, with a beautiful canister of popcorn, that I told Eddie, I had walked up to our dumpster, and found it. It still had popcorn in it, and when I went to show Eddie the canister, the popcorn fell out onto our bed. I started picking it up, and asked Eddie, if he would please help me pick it up. He got mad, and said no. That really hurt my feelings, so I just laid down on our bed, and turned away from him, and went to sleep. Well, later, when we both woke up, I told him we needed to talk about what had happened. Needless to say, none of that had happened. I would never take things out of a dumpster, especially not food, yuck. Eddie said, when he came in our bedroom, I was laying down. He asked me if I was ok, or was I feeling bad.  I looked at him, and said that nothing was wrong, and asked him to leave me alone. Ok, now, that is very scary. That happened to me a few times, when I was in intensive care.  I praise God for blessing my husband with an amazing, understanding heart. He did not get one bit mad at me, only concerned. He forgave my attitude, and prayed with me, and for me. Please say a prayer for me, would very much appreciate it. I go see my Doctor next Thursday, February 2nd. Be blessed sweet friends, much love to everyone.
