Thankful Thursday

1 John 5:5 Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

I so love this verse as it seems to say to me that we are nothing but with Jesus in our corner we are everything. Perhaps this verse is the wisest thing to remember. For if we follow Jesus then we will be cared for with the best. It is when we depart from his ways that we worry, get stressed and troubles incure.

Proverbs 12:25 Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up

Why worry and get all stressed out we should keep enouraged and share encouraging words.

As we travel down lifes events there will be many difficulties. We will never be able to face it all along without him in our corner.

Today I am thankful for the family , friends, church members and others who give me grand encouragement and helps me remember that one day we will find a blessed home and live forever with our Lord Jesus
I am very thankful that while I need to have my gallbladder taken out I do have time to go at my own pace. I am thankful for the doctor that I have and his encouraging, Christian love that he knows while I am afraid that he can encourage and send me in the right direction.

  8. I had my gall bladder taken out and feel so much better, but I didn't have time to think about it. It was at a dangerous stage. So thankful that you are doing so well.
