:) I am thankful for the fact that I have all those silly jackets finished and the shirts for the Sheriff department are neatly folded and ready to go out the door ......whew!!!!! it has been a week with those things........

:) I am thankful that I have a loving husband that is helping me out around the house so much since my back problems..... He cleans and folds and sweeps and runs the vacuum...... He cares for me like a loving husband that I wish for everyone...........

:) I am thankful that my Father God has led me to the right Dr's in order to avoid surgery on my back......... I am thankful for a Christian Dr that has helped me find just the right specialist.........

:) I am thankful that my DH is off this week and we are getting that rent house about finished and will be able to put it on the market this weekend..........

:) I am thankful to my Father God that He is ever teaching me that to just be a woman is ok and that He will give me strength where strength is needed and He will give me time to rest in Him and that is ok....... I am allowed..

:) I am thankful that I have had a good visit with my son Chris this week and we chatted about the Lord and the relationship that the two of them share.........I am thankful that the Lord let me have that time with Chris................

:) I am thankful that the Lord has brought into my life women of like faith here in these blogs.. Women that I can share the word of God with and learn of the Jesus in them as I share the Jesus in me.....It is causing me to grow in the Lord and that is a good thing.............

:) I am thankful that when I sin I have an advocate with the Father.........

Good Morning Denise,
"HAPPY THANKFUL THURSDAY" my friend. I enjoyed reading your "THANKFUL THURSDAY" list. I am so "THANKFUL" that you are my friend and am "THANKFUL" I came across you. We all have so many things to be "THANKFUL" for each and everyday. I'm glad you have such a wonderful and loving and caring hubby. Men like that are to be treasured and cherished. Not too many are like that these days. I say that, but I really don't know. I just know from what I see around here in my area. I am "THANKFUL" I have a wonderful hubby as well. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me besides my LORD AND SAVIOR. When you have time my friend, stop by. I have some things for you from my Wednesday's Post. Take care my friend and have a great day. May God Bless You and Yours.

Love & Hugs,
Karen H.

I am glad that you got your huge job done and it is ready to make the trip out of the doors.

I too join you thanking God for the women here. And yes, it makes me want to reach for the good things of Him just a little more seriously.

Praying.

Denise,

This week has been hectic and I forgot to do my TT. That doesn't mean I'm not thankful, just that I forgot. I have much to be thankful for. One thing that brings joy to my heart is having your for my friend. For that I am truly thankful. You teach me a lot about God and His Word. Thank you, my friend.
