Iris has labeled today’s thankful journey “HOPE“. “And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:5-8
I am numbered among the “ungodly” that Christ gave His life for. I am one without strength…that He freely gives strength to in my time of need. I am one with the glorious HOPE that fades not away…(1 Peter 5:4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.)
I am thankful for peace and protection. I am thankful for love of family. I am thankful for healing for Wanda—(HOPE is what He gives—-TRUST is what we do)
I am thankful for the blessings of my Father—freely given to one so undeserving as I. God bless you tremendously today!

The Hope of Peace and Protection. Yes, some things we can and do tend to forget their origin, the Living Hope. We try to manufacture and buy them, but they do not bring Hope when contrived in this way. >Thank you for your reminders.
I am so thankful for you my friend, be blessed.
Where would we be without hope – the real hope of a God whose promises never fail. This was a wonderful post Angie.
Angie,>>Romas 5:5-8 blows me away. It is profound… I will never be able to wrap my mind around the love of God. >>Great post.
Isn’t it beautiful to know that Christ gave His life even though we were still sinners. It is such a comfort for me to know what He loves me that much.>>Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week – Praising the Lord with you for your sister Wanda 🙂>>Be blessed today and always.
