Thankful Thursday ~ Joy

“You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
(Psalm 16:11 ESV)

In June I shared with you that I will be going home to see my family. The day of my departure is getting very close. As of tonight, I have 29 days before boarding the plane. I cannot describe the joy I have in my heart. 8 years not seeing my family is a long time…

I also shared in my June post that everything truly is Divine intervention. His intervention continues as my departure date draws close. My passport came 2 weeks before the expected date. I have updated my online booking with my personal data, e.g. passport number, alien number etc.

Last week, we saw my husband’s cardiologist to check on his progress. His doctor was very happy. My husband’s heart is beating well; no danger of another heart failure. This was great news and it gives me peace leaving my husband for 2 weeks.

Looking back at the beginning of 2012, things looked very bleak in my life…But God is faithful and will work out everything for the good (see Romans 8:28).

What are you thankful for this week? Please share with us by leaving a link to your Thankful Thursday post below. I will also be hosting Thankful Thursday in the month of September, since I will be out of town in October 😉 . In October, my friend Laurie at “Women Taking A Stand” will be your hostess.

Thank you for stopping by today. Remember: God will work everything out for the good, no matter how bleak it may currently look in your life.

Love & peace,
Iris
