Just Thankful

This morning as I woke up, I am greeted by the beautiful smile of my Father and I remember His faithfulness.

I am thankful that…

Butch and I were able to sell our very old car and buy a newer one. We’ve been wanting to get a new car. On- line, Butch saw this 2nd hand car that he thought was a steal for the asking price. We needed the money to buy it so we decided to sell our old car. I thought nobody would be interested in it anymore. Time was running out, we were worried we wouldn’t have the money. But we made a declaration. Butch laid his hands on the computer screen with the car’s picture and prayed “Lord, we claim this car…” I also declared that before the month ends, we would get it. Today is the last day of November and last night, we were able to buy it!

my atopic dermatitis is no longer flaring. Just yesterday, I noticed that my hands, arms and legs no longer have lesions. I guess it just went away! I really thank the Lord for this because it has been very uncomfortable.

Butch and I have has never felt that we lack anything we need. We need loads of cash for the coming baby and I could say, money is not going to be a problem. Also, ever since we got married Butch and I have never fought about having no money.

I have a very loving husband that has been very supportive with my pregnancy. I simply cannot imagine being pregnant without Butch. He supports and takes care of me in every way he possible he could. He massages my aching back, he comforts me when I feel apprehensive about anything, he buys me food I want, and even puts up with my endless whining! I am also happy that my family is with me. My mom, dad, uncle, sisters and adorable nieces.

I eat three healthy meals a day, sometimes even four. I know Nigel will come out strong and healthy because I eat fruits, vegetables, carbs and all the nutrients he needs.

The Lord guides me in His wisdom as I tackle everyday problems. Being in His presence is the most important thing for me. The Lord never promised us a problem less life, but He sure promised to be with us every step of the way. Above all, this is what I am thankful for!

As sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, The Lord’s love and faithfulness will endure forever.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

I am happy for you and Butch. God really answers prayers. And He always takes care of His children.

I am reading a book right now about Jabez's prayers and how God answers his prayers. My husband says, we should pray like Jabez did!

Take care .. muahh

Here via Entrecard, I saw a pregnant woman the other day smoking. That riles me up, no regard for their unborn baby, so I am glad most mums-to-be are like you and taking care of themselves.

God is really good all the time. We just have to really trust Him and wait on Him till His perfect plan is revealed. Thanks for the inspired post. God bless you all.

This is a great post. While people run about looking for peace, looking for joy, looking for "happiness", they miss that the key to all of it is a life of daily, constant thanksgiving. May God bless you in your pregnancy & your growing family.

Hi Wendy,
Faith is a wonderful thing isn't it? I can't imagine a life without knowing God.

And I have forgotten when you are due. It should be pretty soon now huh?

God bless you, Nigel and your entire family!!:-)
