Thankful Thursday


Another Thankful Thursday is here, time to praise God for all our blessings. I really do not know where to begin to thank You Father God. If it were not for You blessing us through the kindness of several blogging friends, we would not have a place to live, or have a car. It is scary living month to month, but that is what we are doing. Father God is hearing the cries of my heart each month, and graciously answering my prayers. I truly do not understand how some people do not believe there is a God. I am living proof that He is real!! Without Him, I would be homeless, with Him, I am provided for. We have 11 more months, and our car will be paid off. We were so excited, counting the months down. Now, we are scared, wondering if we will lose our car. It is the only car we have. But, we also have Father God, He is all we really need. He loves us, and cares for us. We are placing all of our love, hope, faith, and trust in Him. He has never failed us, and on Him we fully depend. He is our solid rock, we continue to stand upon Him. He will not let us fall. Thank You Father God, we love You beyond measure.

Living where I do (third world country), and doing what I do (church worker), I'm sorry I can't help you out financially. But I pray along with you, and included you in my prayers during our prayer and fasting at church. And I believe, right along with you, that God is always there for you. Be strong and be of good courage, my dear sister.

to change your blog header...log in, upload your new header, get the url for it, copy it...go into your blog editing for that blog which you want to change...find the 'header.jpg'
[do a CTRL/F --hold down the CTRL and F keys on your keyboard] When you see the "Find" box below on your monitor, type in "header.jpg"...it should then highlight where your OLD header is...highlight that, then paste in the NEW code for your NEW header and save.

That should then do the trick. If you have problems, just email me.

He won't let you guys down. I've been there...living in pieces...going days eating 'spam' stuff...that was before I knew Him though but still somehow He always provided. And He will for you too. Stay strong.

Depending on God to get by each and every day takes strong faith. You have such strong faith - may He shower you continually with blessings as you continue to depend on Him for all your needs!

"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4: 19

Thanks so much for visiting my Thankful Thursday post. WOW! You have such a positive outlook and I can tell you look to Jesus every day. Praise God for your faithfulness to Him! These two verses keep coming up for me. Hope they are blessings to you as well...
Romans 8:28And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,[a] who[b] have been called according to his purpose.
Hebrews 11:1Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

Nancie said...

Thanks for your visit and prayers. May God bless you abundantly!

With love in Christ and prayers,
Nancie
