I have so very much to be thankful for. I have been in terrible pain all week, it is lessening now, and I think I am thankful for the leg that is hurting, some others do not have a leg to hurt. Instead of complaining I want to praise God for feeling, for the pain, and for having the leg to hurt. I could be in such terrible shape now, but God has been good to me, he keeps me going, and he keeps me content. Only our Heavenly Father can do this. I give him the glory for all the things he is so wonderful in providing for me.
I have met so many new friends lately, and I am thankful for each of them, and what they have brought into my life. Everyone we meet gives us something different, and all those friends always give what we need, when we need it. Our gracious father sends the exact ones we need. Now my Saviour is still the best friend I have, and he always will be number one. I am thankful for you my sweet Jesus, that you loved me so much to die for me, and that you just keep giving and giving and giving, and I will forever and eternally be grateful for that. God bless you on this Thankful Thursday, give him the thanks and the praise he deserves. Have a wonderful day, and know you have a friend in Jesus.

Hi, Barbara! Im a first-time visitor to your site. Im truly sorry youve been in so much pain. My heart aches when I hear people say that. Ive endured a LOT of physical pain, because I have an autoimmune disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis. It caused me to be in/out wheelchairs, home bound and bed bound at times. Im doing better, by Gods grace, and can walk more now.
Im so thankful that you have hope in Christ--thats what carried me through my suffering. I will truly pray for you today.
So sorry to hear of your pain. I know that you will soon be better. God Bless you as you serve Him.
I hope you feel better soon. I said a prayer for you.
Hope you feel better soon!
Could not have said this better! I will be praying for you.
I just have to tell you that when I see you have come for a visit I smile cuz I know I am going to get a hug. Soooo, I am sending you a hug today!
Feel better soon!
I want to thank you all for the many prayers for me, I a so appreciate it, I am going tomorrow for a doppler, to see it may be a clogged artery causing my problem, so if you would keep in your prayers then too, thank you, and as one of my friends says here is your hug..
Lots of hugsssssss, Barbara
I've prayed for alleviation of your pain. But your comments remind me of my sister-in-law. Her heart valves are calcifying due to radiation treatments for Hodgkins 40 years ago. Yet each day she is grateful for every one of those years where she raised her children, saw them married and loved her grandchildren. Please join me in prayer for the right doctor to be able to do a heart valve replacement. Thanks!
What encouraging words for those of us who have been blessed with so much. I am sorry you are in such pain and I pray you continue to feel relief. Thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving such sweet words.
