Thankful Thursday ~ Provision

For in this way there will be richly provided for you an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. ~ 2 Peter 1:11 (ESV)

In the month of October, my friend Lynn at Spiritually Unequal Marriage is hosting Thankful Thursday — come join in…

Ha, and you thought I would no longer be around. I am 😉 — I just have become a bad blogger. Believe me, I have always something to be thankful for — daily.

Today I would like to share with you about God’s provision. Not only did He provide a way back to Himself in Christ Jesus, but also provides daily for my personal needs. Sure there are some ‘wants’ God has not provided as of today. I am content though — this has not always been the case. I truly believe that God will provide for some of the wants in His time. And if not, so be it…

Over the last several months I have changed my daily routine and it has done me good. I think that is why I have not been around much — at least blogging, FB or on Twitter. In my free time I have read a lot, prayed a lot. A great balance to my insanely hectic job 😆 (thankful that no one at my work knows about my personal blog) …

The greatest thing God provides every single day: His Love. Oh, where would I be without it? It is good to know that there is at least One who loves me unconditionally. Even when I mess up, I know that He will never tell me “enough now – I no longer love you” – oh what precious gift…

God also provided some opportunities for me to grow in my photography. I have met some incredible photographers last week. I just wish I could have been at the workshop the full 2 days. Maybe next time 🙂 .

What are you thankful for this week? Care to share? Head on over to Lynn’s blog to add your name to Mr Linky …

Thank you for stopping by today…Be blessed today and always,

  2. I always feel guilty with how long my blog goes without posts, but sometimes taking time away is really the best thing for us. Thanks for the reminder that my time spent away from the computer can be focused on Him!

  3. I am excited to see what God will do in your life Iris. Your photography is so beautiful and I love that you’re going to workshops to help you grow. He is providing you with new opportunities. Love it!

    Love you,
    Debbie

  4. Yes, God does always provide, doesn’t He? I am so very thankful along with you today for this very same thing!

    Many Blessings to you, Iris!

    Happy Thankful Thursday!

  5. Your post is a confirmation of something I think a lot of us are hearing. I love the Christian friends I\’ve made through Twitter and Facebook but I know I need to find a way to balance it all and use my time more effectively. Thanks for this post.

  6. Iris, so glad I could stop by to visit you today. I was encouraged in your post. I can so understand. Often the LORD changes up my schedule to regroup and get alone with HIM even more. It means putting some things down for a time and others permanently but it\’s always GOOD in GOD.

    Praying you have a wonderful weekend dear sister.
