Thankful Thursday

This week I am thankful for so many things:

Forty or fifty pounds of tomatoes from my garden over the summer… Yum and eeee. I made tons of salsa… Bring on the chips and NFL football.

My friend Dineen. She always listens. Always prays. Always Loves.

Iris at Sting My Heart and Laced With Grace. I have been a contributor at Laced With Grace now going on three years. I am humbled to write devotions about our Great God along with my amazing co-writers. Thanks Iris!

My friend Laurel Wreath. She has prayed for me and my family many times over the years. A rich friend, indeed. She is having a fantastic give-away on Friday… Check it out at Laurelwreathreflections.com.

My prayer partners who prayed for my daughter this week. My little lamb is experiencing real growing pains of Middle School. For all of you who prayed for my baby girl (13), Thank you!

The family who live at 1Peter3Living. I would be lost without you.

The family of all my friends who stop in here to share their wisdom, a hug, and encouragement with me and all of us who hang out here at some point in the week.

I am thankful for all of my Thankful Thursday buddies. You gals ROCK!

Mostly I am utterly humbled to be loved by the Lord Jesus Christ. He saved me from myself. Redeemed my marriage, my very life. Lord, I am so very thankful.

Have a wonderful week… I have a post for all prodigals tomorrow. Be Blessed, Lynn

Hi Lynn. Wow, the tomatoes is sure a great harvest! Thank God for blessing you with many wonderful friends. They are so precious. Thank you for your prayers and encouragements. I am so thankful for you and many wonderful friends at Thankful Thursday. Take care and may God bless you abundantly!

Oh Lynn you have been there so much for me, it is an honor. I have come to the conclusion
middle school is something to survive. My oldest is having so much fun in high school, and he keeps telling me how it is so much better.

Middle school is just plumb hard.

Hugs.

PS thanks for announcing my giveaway. Hugs.

Tomatoes wow hubby love tomatoes and my son a little bit...Nice TT entry.

[Kathleen]

What a great bit of thanks to God. He is so good.

Ah...Middle School. I think it was hard for all my kids. Now my baby is a junior in HS and he still can't stand school but loves sports.

Keeping her in my prayers and you as well and I was so SUPER JEALOUS! Tomatoes. I had four plants on my deck and they all died...Dead!

I have to have a greenhouse up here to be sure. Tomorrow I will stop at a farmers market in Rapid City -- about 3000 ft lower than were I live.... over a mile high. Hugs!

[Dineen Miller]

Ah, girl, I'm so thankful for you too. And in awe of how God has put us together in his great plan. What an honor it is to serve and work with you. I love God so much. He's sooooooo amazing. :-)
