Thankful Thursday

Well it is that time again, lets look in our own life and see what all we are thankful for today, can we give God the glory for the things he has did in our life? Let's ponder on these things for a few minutes, and I am sure you can come up with many just as I have.  Hummmmmm well lets list them, and see how many I can come up with for just today.

19. I have good eyes, ears, sense of smell, sense of feeling, oh God has been good to me.

20. I can open my mouth and sing his praises and speak his words to every one I meet.

I am going to stop here, but you get an idea how we can be thankful for everything in our life.

God has blessed America, because we have stood on his word, now many have tried to take him and his word out of the government, out of the courts, out of our schools, but for us Christians we will always have his word hid in our heart, and no one can take that away, I think that is why David  told us in the Psalms 119:11 "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee."

he knew a time would come when Christians could not have a Bible, this has happened in many other Countries, and if it keeps going the path it is going here in America it could

happen here as well. So it  is important to hide God's precious word in our hearts, that we stand on that word, and we can always give account to some one and tell them what God has did for us.  Never be ashamed of God, or his word, stand and listen

to that sweet Holy Spirit that is in you, and when it nudges you

and tells you to tell them about Jesus, do it, then comes the sweet peace that only comes from being obedient. You hear me

mention Obedience quite a lot and you probably wonder why, well my friend, if we are not obedient to God, there are consequences for that, and I am a firm believer that God wants to bless us, but he is a just and holy God, and if we are not

obedient he will punish us too, it is very plain in his word. So I

much rather have showers of blessings, than punishment, how

about you? It is our choice. Hugs my friends, and do have a very

Thankful Thursday.
