Today I link with Iris at Grace Alone to share a thankful heart for all of my blessings!
I am cheating and writing this late Wednesday night. Tonight I wanted to cry when I heard my little 3 1/2 year old saying her prayers. She prayed for “little Abby” and “baby Cora” — two of the children battling cancer in our blog family. Just hearing the sincerity and innocence in her voice was so beautiful. So on that note …
- I am thankful for our precious daughter who is so innocent and sweet.
- I am thankful for her childlike faith.
- I am so thankful for my precious husband! He is such a good man.
- I am thankful to still have my parents and my mother-in-law. Our daughter adores them.
- I am thankful for my church. I felt like dry bones tonight as I entered into worship, but then God filled me up — full to over-flowing. Thank You Lord!
- I am thankful that I witnessed FOUR healings tonight! Hallelujah! Thank You Lord! God is the same yesterday, today, and forever!
- I am so thankful for Pastor Taylor Stewart who knows how to pull heaven into the room. What a blessing to have a pastor who is in love with the Lord and LOVES to worship Him!
- I am thankful for heat, walls to break the winter winds, and hot water. With that said, “God, please protect those who aren’t warm right now.”
- I am thankful for my Christian friends — and that includes you.
I could go on and on. I am a blessed woman!!!
Hebrews 12:28 declares, “Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire.”
That is so precious, thanks for sharing.
Oh, what a blessing to hear about your daughter’s prayer!! Bless her heart!!
I loved your TT list! I can relate to all of them! God is good!
She’s a little sweetie, isn’t she? This was a sweet post! LOL!
You are blessed .Thank you for sharing.
I shared that same kind of joy and a huge lump in my throat when my daughter led us in our family devo…she talked about the names of God and then she prayed and I did not know she could pray like she did. She is 13 … so you are training up a child in the way she should go … if she is prayinng for others at age 3 … no telling what she will be doing when she is 13!!! Happy TT, love-Laurie
That is precious, Beth! I love the faith and innocence of a child…if we as adults could go back to simply believing like a child. Wow…can you just imagine the things that we would see come to pass!
I love your thankful heart, my sweet, precious sister!!!
Happy TT!
PTL Beth, I am so thankful to know you and feel Jesus when i read your posts, love you my friend.

You have a lot to be thankful for. Thanks for sharing. A child’s innocence is always a breath of fresh air.

It is so good to give thanks to the Lord.

It sounds like the Lord is blessing you right now. But I also notice that you are making the choice to focus on what you are thankful for. It changes our perspective. Your little girl with the pink room seems to be a thankful and prayerful one too. Good work in teaching her Beth.
Family and friends are the top blessings in my life too. Happy tt.
I love reading and visiting your blog each day. Your posts are always encouraging to me. I love your honesty and your passion for the Lord. It shows in all your posts. I am thankful for you today Beth!
What a precious prayer your daughter prayed.

So much of your list I too am thankful for. What a beautiful message! I love it when you said your pastor brings “heaven into the room”.
Your sweet baby girl is something else!!! Ahh the love and faith of a child!
I’m grateful for everything. Our GOD is so good!!!!!!

We all have so much to be thankful for every day. Right now, I can only imagine how you felt when you heard your daughter’s prayers. What an uplifting post!
Amen,Amen, Children they can bring out such purity can’t they, and make us feel that childlike way as well. That was beautiful!! You are no doubt blessed!
