Today I will not write in my typical paragraph form... I will just give you little bullet points of what I am thankful for...
-My hubby and I are going through a season right now...we have been through this season before and let's say at times we both showed our sinful side to each other during that time. Here we are about 6 months later and we are in the same season again, but this time we have both been working on the things that we did not do well on last time... we are not sinless of course, but definitely sinning less... All credit goes to God on this one!!! (I didn't give the details, but I hope you can still follow the story)
-My Fwend over in Florida is just growing leaps and bounds with God over the past months... She is tasting some major time FREEDOM in CHRIST right now (Hey Fwend...P.F.R. Can you figure that one out?)
-I am having victory with my food addiction. It is such a slow process, but I know if I let Him, God will bring me out of this season in Freedom myself...
-I am thankful for the blogging community (some of these ladies are becoming my friends through their constant communication) and their support and encouragement to me as I am fighting my way through this food struggle.
-I am thankful that God stepped in and solved a babysitting issue (meaning we needed babysitters) for the Small Group that my husband and I host. God did more than I could have asked :)
-I am thankful that this Friday is the first Friday of a Women's Bible Study that I will be hosting in my home. We are going to do Beth Moore's "Wising Up" study...there are 12 DVDs, so that will take us through the end of the year (1 time a month). There will be both ladies that I know and ladies I do not know... Pray for me to serve these ladies with an open heart and lots of love...
I had a lot to be thankful for... I always do even when I don't realize it... Blessings!!!

You will absolutely LOVE Wising Up!
We did a session today that was so good I had to write about it....i could have written pages about the note taking I did, but if you want a glimpse then come check it out!
I'm thankful for you too. I'm so glad I found you and your blog!
Hope your day has been full!
Love,
Fran
I am so glad you have become my friend, be blessed.
How cool that you are continuing with your weight-loss.
Well, I tell you - being married for almost 25 years means we have been through some seasons on our own. Currently I am enjoying our second 'honeymoon' :)
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.
Be blessed today and always.
Hi,
Really great list. I appreciate your honest thoughts about your marriage and that you are not sin less but you sih less. Neat.
Also, I hosted a BS in myhome last fall..., One of the neatest things I have ever done. Pray yours ROCKS! I am sure it will. Love and hugs, Lynn
Great list!! Thanks so much for sharing...
Hey thanks for stopping by my blog. I've actually been following yours off and on now for a while. So your post made me smile.
Love the list of stuff to be thankful for. You've reminded me where my focus should be. It's amazing how easily I lose my "balance" and start concentrating on the problems and not the blessings.
Much love,
~Cheryl
My sweet Fwend,
I am so grateful to make your "Thankful List" once again. You made me smile. : ) I am so proud of you in your journey and your honesty before yourself and our Lord. He is so faithful and He WILL complete the work He has started in you. I am "Thankful" for a great friend that is growing along side me. I love you much! Oh, and I don't know what P.F.R. stands for. You'll have to fill me in.
SWEETSA PIZZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy TT!
Oh, I wish I was coming to your bible study this Friday!!
Blessings to you today.
Go girl on the weight loss!!
Thanks for sharing what you thankful for. God bless and take care.
I have not heard of "Wising Up"---we are doing Stepping UP....it is wonderful!
I am glad that you are seeing progress....and yes..since I've been married over 25 years...I can so follow what's not said. Been there....done that. We grow more each time. God is faithful.
Bless you sweet friend! Pray for Rylan...they may have to adjust his meds again.
I love how you can be so real to me. In so many ways I see my self in your post. Reading it was a blessing for me. Know that you are in my prayers.
You're a grateful girl! Thanks for your prayers---trying to get to Houston tomorrow. Love your heart to work out your salvation before HIM with your precious husband and look at log in your own eye ---even if you are only 5% wrong...you are so precious!
It's through the seasons that we grow and bear much fruit. Thank you for your transparency.
I think it's wonderful how you are so open about going through a season in your marriage. It's good to know that we all have our struggles once in a while.
I hope you enjoy your Beth Moore study. God bless you today!
Hi i will join this but in my domain in http://www.happymomiam.us
I love the picture of you and your family! (Which I'm sure has been up for months, but since I've been MIA for months in blogworld, I'm just now discovering its cuteness!).
Thank you for being such a faithful servant of His Name.
Oh we would most certainly be friends and get into all kinds of trouble together! Good trouble mind you--- but trouble none the less~
