~Thanksgiving in July~

Many stores will have Christmas sales in July. This week, I plan on having Thanksgiving in July!


No, I’m not going to roast a turkey and prepare all the trimmings! I’m going to “think to thank”. It is so easy to get into an unthankful attitude, and I don’t wish to do that! Our Lord is so wonderful and He’s given us so many blessings!


Psalm 68:19 says:

“Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.”


Today, I thank the Lord for:
***The sun that's shining and the privilege of having air conditioning!
***My flowers that are growing. See what I mean? I have four plants that have died and I'm focusing on them instead of the other plants that are doing just fine!
***The yummy stir-fry that my husband made last night (and we enjoyed again for lunch today). I didn't have to cook last night!

What are some things that you are thankful for?

Things I'm thankful for: Being Saved!! Most of the time my family. And at my age- just being alive.
Question though? Don't you and Kevin have 7yrs?

I am thankful for the Lord, my 8 precious blessings and a husband who would do anything for me and also my health.

Many blessings!

I am thankful for my precious family--cooler temps--a place to call home, even if it's a mess because of our remodeling--and the faithfulness of God. : )
