“O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.”
Psalm 95:1-2
I hope you all had a truly blessed and refreshing Sunday! 😊🧡 The weather turned off chilly here in East Texas. Very much unexpected but it made the day feel more festive and cozy! 🍂 I can’t tell you all how much I have been blessed and encouraged by YOUR Thanksgivings in the comments. When I get a notification of comment received, I smile and quickly hop on to see who is joining the Thanksgiving countdown fun!! 🙌🏻 TODAY:
1.) I am THANKFUL that the Lord’s mercies are new every single morning! “It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23
2.) I am THANKFUL that the Lord Jesus Christ saves to the uttermost! That means completely and fully. Our salvation does not hinge on or is not dependent on our own works. We are saved completely by the shed blood of Jesus Christ! “Wherefore HE is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.” Hebrews 7:24
3.) I am THANKFUL for God’s grace which sufficient for the day and whatever it may hold! His strength is perfect!! 🧡 “And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
4.) I am THANKFUL that we are to walk by faith, not by sight!! “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18
5.) I am THANKFUL for this new week and the knowledge that the Lord God has it perfectly planned out!! “As for God, His way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: He is a buckler to all those that trust in Him.” Psalm 18:30
Alrighty!!💁🏼♀️ Now it’s your turn!! Leave your 5+ Thanksgivings in the comment box below!! If you haven’t joined yet, better late than never!!! When you comment you make my day.🙋🏼♀️ 🎉🎉🎉
