Thankful Thursdays

Thankful for Love

This bunch of people are just a few of the folks in our lives that we are thankful for!

God is faithful, full of grace and mercy. When I look back over the last 10 to 15 years, I marvel at where God has brought us from. The circumstances were not always pleasing. The situations we found ourselves in, not always a blessing. But holding onto God’s unchanging hand was never an option.

1 Chronicles 16:12 says “Remember the wonders He has done.” NIV

Is there a place in your life where you can reflect on His wonders? The little boy with glasses is a huge wonder! He is reading y’all! If you listened in to a post which was a video blog not long ago, you heard him! The little boy with the green shirt was a 2 lb 7 oz miracle! Today, he will talk your ears off!

The young mom beside her daddy was in a tragic automobile accident in 2000. God spared her life and has blessed her with two incredible boys. Make that 3. Her husband David is pretty incredible too!

The daugther who wins the prize for the most children present (in the black) was our prodigal. Notice I said “was”. God daily answers prayers! The job that she and her husband, Jared share of raising 5 children is not an easy task. Blended families are sometimes difficult, but with the LORD guiding and directing, it can be done! They are a beautiful family and full of life and love. I am thankful that Jared and Tiffany found each other and found the peace of God which passes all understanding.

I could go on and on for all the thankfulness we all have! I know you’ve got your own bucket of thankfulness! Do share!

  1. Angie, what a beautiful family photo! I loved to hear a little snippet of the stories too. Praise God for the return of your prodigal daughter. I love to hear about stories like this. Hugs to you.

  2. Thanks for sharing the blessings that your family is and has received. Isn't it awesome what the Lord does in the family of a believer. The word says He loves them to a 1000 generations!

  3. Hey Sweet Pea! Looking at this beautiful family portrait with you in the center brings the Proverbs 31 Scripture to mind:

    She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also and he praises her: “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all”

    AMEN on YOU, SISTA!!!! Love you!
