“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.”
~ Proverbs 3:5 (ESV)
Trust no one! Well, except the Lord and the ones that are very close to you or know you for a little while.
I really wavered between ‘Trust’ and ‘Gift’ for Thankful Thursday this week, but ‘Trust’ ‘won’…Again this week I was reminded that we really can trust only a handful people this side of heaven. There are a lot of mean-spirited people in this world. But I digress, so here is my thankful list for this week…
- I am thankful that I can trust the Lord with everything in my life. I can pour out my heart to Him without Him sharing it with anyone. I can trust that He will give me comfort and peace in times of distress…
- I am thankful that I can share my heart and concerns with my beloved. Even when I loose total focus on a matter, he is there to comfort me. He helps me to see reason (thank you Lord for placing this particual treasure in my life)…
- I am thankful that I can trust a handful of friends with whom I can share my hurts and feelings…no matter what – they do not judge…
- I am thankful that I can trust the Lord to give me strength for days where I don’t seem to have any strength left to ‘swim up-stream’…
- I am thankful that I can trust that everything will work out for the good and that all mean people will be exposed in due time…
- Last but not least, I am thankful that I can trust my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ to be my protection until eternity…
Before I let you go, I want to say publicly ‘thank you’ Mama Bear and Jenileigh for the wonderful gifts you have sent me. Yeah – can you believe that I won two drawings in the month of June/July 😛 . I hope to share a digital LO with you soon that feature the wonderful prizes.
So, what are you thankful for this week? If you have posted your own Thankful Thursday post, please link it below.
Thank you for stopping by today…and remember: even when you think there is nothing to be thankful for, just step back, take a deep breath — the Lord is always worthy of our thanks – no matter what 😉
