Thankful Thursday

Linking Blogs and Hearts Through Gratitude

5/13/2015

Welcome to our very first Thankful Thursday Link-Up on Marsha's Musings! I'm so very blessed and honored that you've chosen to join me in giving thanks and praise to God this week. Please read the introductory post found here. It lays the ground work for what this link-up is about and how we're going build this community through our thankful posts. I had hoped to add this post to the introductory post, but due to a technical problem, I wasn't able to get back in and do what I wanted. SO, please be sure to read it first!

I think I'll do my first post as a list.

Today I'm thankful for my friend Iris who started this meme 8 years ago. She has a beautiful heart for God.
I'm also thankful for the many women I've met over the years through the original Thankful Thursday. Some are now real life friends.
I'm thankful for the opportunity to meet new friends and build a community that loves God and gives Him thanks.
God has been so faithful to my husband and I over the past 7 months. He lost his job abruptly and is still unemployed. God has provided for us every step of the way.
I'm thankful for my husband who has managed our money well over the years. It's because of his commitment to being a good steward of all the Lord has provided us, that we are doing all right. We don't know what the future holds, but we know Who holds the future. And so we give Him all the thanks, praise, honor and glory.
Last but not least, I'm thankful for each of you who have stopped by to see what this link up is all about. I pray you will join in. Bring your cup of gratitude. If it's filled to overflowing, share out of the abundance. If your cup is empty, please come and be encouraged by the others. I'm asking God to fill you cup.

I'm so glad you'll be joining me in the journey. We all need to keep our eyes focused gratitude otherwise we lose our eternal perspective.

I am thankful for YOU!! I am a brand new blogger, so this is my first link up...I'm not even sure if I did it correctly. I am just glad to have a weekly reminder to note the blessings in my life and see how the same awesome God has been busy working miracles in the lives of others. I'm so excited to be a part of this community! :)

Hi Cookie! So nice to meet you! Thanks for joining our gratitude community. Check back over the next couple of days. Some will be linking up later. And yes, you did it correctly....great post. I left a comment for you over there. I hope it worked. I'm on my phone and I got a strange message about my website not being recognized. Have a blessed rest of the week.

Hi Bethany! Thanks for joining in....it feels like old times. I think that's how we met 7 years ago...through TT. And then I did a 5 Minute Retreats series and you joined in. The rest is history! LOL I'll pop over and read your blog Friday. It's been a LONG day and it's late. Love ya!

Becoming the woman of grace God designed me to be.
It's all simply grace.
