“Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”
~ Psalm 37:4 (ESV)
Wozaa! I almost forgot that tomorrow is already Thursday. How cool is that! Well, here is my thankful list for this week:
- I am thankful that the Lord keeps interrupting my day to pray for others. It is so cool how He puts names in my head and I start praying for them…way cool!
- I am thankful for the girls at Laced with Grace. I know I have said it before, but I just want to share it again. If you think that all of them are volunteers – sharing their wisdom, passion and love with others without compensation – Lord you are good. Thank you for bringing these girls together…
- I am thankful for Bernadine’s poem she shared on New Years Eve. It truly touched me and she is allowing me to use it for a digital scrap LO. I already have a vision for it – hanging in my cubicle (with the proper credit of course)…
- I am thankful that the Lord kept me focused today. Do you ever have a day where everything just works fine and all of a sudden everything unravels? Well, it happened to me this morning. Everything ran like clock-work until I noticed that I made the coffee for my hubby to take to work with, without the coffee 😆 . From there my morning just went sour, but He kept me focused. I think there is a devotional in this story somewhere. I just have to sort it out…
- I am thankful that God gave me an opportunity to work on a project with Greg at “Mugs of Truth“. More details to come (hehe – I am all giddy about that one)…
- Last but not least, I am thankful for my Sweetheart who puts up with me and all my projects. I already told him to hide my laptop – 😆 …
What are you thankful for this week? Would you be so kind to share with us? Visit my friend Lynn at Spiritually Unequal Marriage to leave your link. Remember that I will be hosting again next week. Hope to see you all then 😛 .
Blessings on your Thursday and always…
I’m thankful for the 20 churches in our area fasting for 40 days for more of God’s presence. I’m thankful for my hubby, he brings a smile to my face.
I love your thankful list.
Loved your list, Iris. Thank you for sharing it. Thank You, for your hard work on LWG – you are such a blessing!!
I love Psalm 37:4 – I clung to that through many years of singleness, not knowing why God was choosing to delay the greatess desire of my heart, to be a wife and a mother. Now, I am thankful that His timing is perfect, and that He has fulfilled my greatess desire!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Being focused and in tune with God, this is great. I am thankful for you.
I am thankful for the wonderful nuggets of truth that I receive from LWG! I had one of those days start this morning when I hit the off button instead of the snooze button.
am so thankful to be able to join again this week … and reading wonderful posts like yours! 🙂
Isn’t it amazing that names come popping so you can pray for them. Great! So glad you’re back hosting. BTW, I just have laugh about your Hub hiding the laptop. Happy TT.
Hi hon,

Leben aber erst seit zwei Jahren in Amerika, genauer gesagt Texas. Wuerde mich freuen mehr Kontakt mit Dir aufnehmen zu koennen.
Gesegnete Gruesse, Barbara
Hey Iris,
Sorry I’m so late getting over here… busy day.
Great post. I’m loving my gifts, got a box today, and please tell Greg I’m loving my “Mug of Truth” too…
Blessings to you this TT!
What a sweet, thankful list. I also love the way God will put someone on my heart to pray for. It seems like such a small thing, but it’s so very powerful.
And thanks for mentioning Laced with Grace. I’m going to have to check them out!
Hi my friend,
I am a truly thankful recipient of your prayers. They are a priceless gift to my soul. Thank you. Thank you…. thank you..
I love the girls at Laced With Grace, the writers and all the readers. I am so thankful you allow me to share my heart and life there. Thank you.
I have missed your posts. It appears I am not alone. The work you do for the Kingdom here at Sting My Heart is a true ministry. I am glad you are back.
Have a perfect day tomorrow. Love you, Lynn
I love this list Iris. The coffee incident was quite funny.
