Saved By Grace – Through Faith
Thought I share some Scripture with you all today. What better way than participating in Word Filled Wednesday?
Where would I be without His Word in my life? I know that I would very much discouraged without it…

Have a blessed day…See you at Thankful Thursday 😛 .
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. John 14:1-3
The road of life is hard to travel alone…We get tired, discouraged, want to give up…
Please read the rest of my devotion this morning over at…
Blessings on your day…
“The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.”
~ Psalm 9:9-10
You know, I love the Psalms. They have become a huge part of my life. The best thing about the Psalms is that most of them are an encouragement instrument (at least it is true for me)…I am encouraged that David who wrote most of the Psalms, struggled too with ‘every-day’ life. But God was His tower, His strength…
The other day I was thinking (again) about how faithful God has been in my life. Even when I was faithless, He never gave up on me. And to top everything off, He made sure that I (and all who believe) have a way to spend eternity in heaven with Him. It still boggles my mind that God would go this far to give up His son so I can be redeemed — marvelous indeed.
Seriously, how I can not trust God with the little issues in my life when He did the most important part — taking care of my Salvation…
We are currently uncertain how long my beloved has his current job (he been at the same place for the past 10 years — budget cuts), but I am not even a little nervous. I believe that what ever happens, happens for a reason. I will trust God to work everything out for the good…
So, this week, yours truly is thankful for trusting God – Who was, is, and will be forever…
Have a super blessed Thursday…And don’t forget, next week, Thankful Thursdayers will meet back here for the month of August…Thrilled to be back blogging/sharing my thoughts we you all. The sabbatical from blogging did me good 😛 …
To find more Thankful Thursday participants this week, please visit my sweet sister in Christ and friend, Lynn at Spiritually Unequal Marriage.
Well, I had planned to write a Thankful Thursday post this week, but work (once again) got in the way with it. The summer heat here in Arizona does not help either. By the time I get home at night, my brain is totally fried – seriously…
Anyway, I apologize for the delay on announcing the winner for the cute dress giveaway I had running for a week. Without further ado, Jennifer (comment # 7) from Scraps and Snippets is the winner (I used as usual Random.Org to draw the winner). Jen, I will send you and email to get more information what size and address to ship it to 😛 .
I wanted to give a little more information why I did this giveaway. There were actually two reasons:
1. Supporting Gentry Rose and her family with the expenses
2. Supporting an American manufacturer and a fellow sister in Christ.
You see, many items we are able to purchase here in the US are no longer made here. They are imported (and some sold for a very high price) to the US. I believe if we all start looking around to see if we can support/buy American products, we can help turn this economy around. I will blog about my thoughts on the economy hopefully in the next weeks (if I have the guts to do it). No, it will not be a political post at all (since I am German, I can not say anything about politics and choose not to anyway)…
Okay, off my soap-box…
Have a super marvelous and blessed weekend…
