Thankful Thursday ~ Time

“The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble.” ~ Psalm 37:39 (ESV emphasis mine)

Yes, I am thankful for time this week 😛 …Here is a little more detail:

  • I am thankful that I can come to the Lord at any time of the day or night with prayers and He will always be there to listen, comfort and strengthen…
  • I am thankful for the past 5 days that I spent with my Sweetheart. It was well worth taking time off work…
  • I am thankful when my sweet friends take time to pray for me…
  • I am thankful for when our son is taking time to call us and just chat…
  • I am thankful for the time my beloved is taking to teach me photography. Yeah, it is a lot different with the ‘real’ camera, than just a point and shoot. For some reason I do take better outside shots than inside…
  • And I am thankful for the time we had with our little Zoey. Sadly, she passed away last Sunday. The house is surely quiet without her…

What are you thankful for this week? Please do share with us 🙂 …Please link your Thankful Thursday post below.

Thank you so much for stopping by today…don’t forget, take time with the Lord (I started to read Jeremiah – thanks to a sweet friend), with your family and friends. It is time well spent…

    Time is something that we have been thinking of a lot; Our littlest is turning two next week and we keep wondering where the time has flown.

  2. Time is such a precious gift that we often overlook. It’s good to reflect how we’ve spent time this week and be thankful for those things we so often take advantage of. Thank you for sharing and reminding us to enjoy the gift of time.

  3. Iris, I am so thankful for YOU! For all that you do for each of us. The time you take…TIME—since we seem so short on it—you give of yours freely. Thank you girl. I am sorry about little Zoey. I saw your picture. You did a very good job. I know she will be missed. God cares about those details as much as He does anything else. What concerns us concerns Him.
    I am glad you had a good week of with your dear man! The Lord is good. EVEN when all I can say in the morning is I am tired. That is what I muttered all day. Could be I’ve been up too late working on posts???? Naw…
    I love you girl!

  4. I am sorry to hear about your little dog – a lovely scrapbook page done in memory. Thank you once again for inspiring us to be thankful in everything we do!

  5. the Lord is always there for us, and that thought helps me face each day with a cheerful heart! am so sorry about Zoey passing away … i know exactly how that feels. lovely tribute! 🙂

  9. We have so much to be thankful for in Canada and the US. Thank you for sharing and for hosting Thankful Thursday.
    Blessings,
    Mary

  10. Iris,
    Ahhh, TIME! I never to seem to have enough and am so thankful for “more” of it! I love time spent with my husband and dear children. My hubby’s primary love language is “quality time”, so I am so aware of how important it is to him, too!

    Thank you, Iris, for all you do and for all of the time spent encouraging us!

    So sorry to hear about your sweet dog.

    Blessings, dear friend!

  11. Thank you for giving my an inspiration to do my list of things i’m grateful for…now I commit to doing it weekly with you here!

    Love your verse…

    Happy Thursday!

  12. Iris, How I love that you select TIME appropriate themes each week for Thankful Thursday! TIME is so priceless! And yet our time is not the same frame as HIS
    Time…and HIS TIME is always perfect!

    Iris, I’m so sorry about Zoey! I’m glad you enjoyed your time and now memories!
    Quiet homes….hmmmm! Each TIME you have such lovely thank yous starting with Our Lord and then your hubby! Such a delight to see such love…again Happy
    Anniversary! Does it seem like 25 years? How wonderful that you can take up a new hobby to share:photography…cool!

    There never seems to be enough time…time for the Lord should be first each day.
    And when you jumpstart and skip that step, the whole day seems out of time!

    God bless your time today and each day with more of HIM! Peggy

  13. TIME… what a great word to focus on. Even though God is eternal, He has given us the gift of time to measure life by.

    Happy Anniversary! 25 years is a wonderful milestone.

    I’m so sorry your little doggy passed away. Ours is getting old, too. It will be a sad day for sure.

    Have a blessed week.

  14. How wonderful that you got some extra time with your Honey this week. I’m sorry that Zoey is no longer with your family. That must be so sad for all of you.

  15. Hey Iris,

    Oh, I”m so sorry about your little Zoe!!! Ahhh, sending (((hugs))) to you now…

    Blessed you had a nice time with your hubby.

    Thanks for all the TIME you spend here blessing us!

    Happy TT?

  16. Iris, Sorry about your little Zoey. Pets are a real blessing in our lives. I love it when my kids call just to chat also. My youngest son called me the other day on his break from work and just wanted to enjoy the sunshine with me! Sweet! Glad you got some precious time with your hubby! Thanks as always, for hosting TT. You are a blessing.
    Mary

  17. He is SO GOOD to us!! Thank you for this sweet reminder, Iris…that he is always there for us in our time of need. Love and prayers…

  18. Hello Iris,
    So nice to hear that you have spent some relaxing time with your loved ones. It does fill the soul and renews our energy for life. Oh so sorry for your doggy! What a blessing the little every day things we take for granted, really are…Thank you for hosting and have a lovely weekend ahead.

  19. So sorry for your loss…I can imagine it is quiet. Thanks for the post…remembering to be thankful in the good and hard times is so encouraging!

  20. I also am thankful for the fact that anytime during the day we can stop and call on Jesus, as I have had to do that numerous times today. My little 4 year olds are really trying mommy today so I have had to call on Him lots today, and He has been faithful!!

    My post is finally up, late today but up!

  21. Your topic today is so timely, Iris. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist!) I’ve been praying about how best to order my days all week.

    Thanks for being our gracious host.

  22. Time is such a gift! I’m glad you were blessed with good times with your beloved this week. I’m sorry to hear about Zoe–she was a beautiful companion!

  23. Iris,
    I always enjoy your TT post. Thanks so much for continuing on with this. It is such an encouragement for me and I am sure many others as well. So sorry to hear about your Zoey.
