Thankful Thursday
Welcome to another Thankful Thursday everyone. What am I thankful for today? I am thankful for the climb. The past few years, my health has really kept me climbing. Due to my diabetes, and my recent strokes, I have been doing quite a bit of mountain climbing. I climb higher, and higher, trying to reach my goal, determined not to fail, or to give up along the way. The mountain seems to get higher, and more rugged with every step. But, I dig in deeper, and continue on. Along the way, some people are cheering me on, praise God. While other people, are trying to convince me to just quit, they say, it is not worth all the effort I am putting into this climb. I ignore those people, I feel they are workers for satan. As I get closer to the top of the mountain, satan keeps setting traps for me, stumbling blocks along my path. Many times, I have slipped along the way, and fallen way back down. But, that is okay. I just dust myself off, get my bearings, and start over. Am I anxious to reach the top, to see the magnificent view from the top, and to commune with my Jesus?? Of course, I am longing to reach the top, cannot wait to see that view, woo hoo!! But, I am already blessed to be communing with my Jesus. You see, He is my constant companion on this climb, when I get tired, He carries me. When I slip along the way, He helps me back up. He supplies my every need, daily. Thank You sweet Jesus. I love You.

It's true life can be very much like that song. Sometimes I think it's really like the song says. It isn't about making it to the top, it's about learning to love the journey along the way. Thanks for sharing.
Reminds me of one of my favorite songs...."This time, Lord you gave me a mountain".
You're beautiful sweet Denise.
Never stop climbing, Denise. None of should ever stop climbing. NO matter from one circumstance to the other ... we should never stop climbing.
What a wonderful devotion Shortybear! I am inspiried to keep my 'climb' up :)
Blessings & Peace, Deanna
You are an easy person to love. God will lead you and show you what He wants you to do. God bless you.
Your faith is inspiring...keep up the good climb sweetie!
Thank you to our Father who daily and continually helps you take another step. Love and hugs. xx
Beautifully written sis!!!
Many blessings Denise...
keeping climbing and thanks for sharing this song and reminder for me to CLIMB too. You have far surpassed
the beauty in your Climb Shortybear and dance while you rest!
Could not decide which post to comment on but I
went back to this one after watching your video and hearing you sing a new song to/with your momma... how beautiful!
Hope to share more later on that video... it's so heartfelt and my heart is soaking it all in and your others that I have read. Not sure about your dr. appt. but praying for God to give you wisdom and peace as you decide.
(Love bug too!) My heart
and mind are so full of thoughts, love and prayers for you that I could burst (and do with tears when I'm at home, not here at the public cyber... but I'm sure my eyes filled up with holding them back)!
I love you so much! Praying and believing for those counts to be where they should be... that the insulin increase will be enough. I cannot imagine (guess I should have commented on your video, huh?)... so much to say and pray!
Peggy
Thanks for all your encouragement and the way you shine JESUS! Soar, climb and shine lil sis!
Oh Denise you are an encouragement to many, keep on climbing we are with you in prayers.
He may even be carrying you up the mountain
Denise, God bless you!
"I am thankful for the climb."
I'm not sure that I've read more courageous words in a very long time. What a testimony you are - a witness to the strength that God gives to us. Though your body is weak at times, your spirit soars, dear friend!
You have encouraged me greatly today with this post.
GOD BLESS!
