I have been doing Thankful Thursday for some time... with long lapses in between... I started with a blogger years ago and was pretty faithful to post with her group, then I read 1000 Gifts , Ann Voskamps, marvelous book of journalling the many small things that God showers on us throughout the day... I got up to the higher numbers and life seemed to become so hectic it was hard to pay that much attention to the bright details that God was raining on me.. So now I will pick up and move forward now that I have found another faithful Blogger to link up here with each week!!!
825. I am so thankful for the answer to prayer for our community this week.. We were not pummeled with the weather as predicted.. Florence gently passed us by.. I saw very little wind or water damage.. Praise you, Father!
826. I am so blessed in the many friends and family on facebook and church who prayed for me during this last ordeal with Squamous cancer on my nose.. I had the skin graft applied last week, and it was revealed yesterday to show it had taken, was good to go... and again, thank you, Lord, for your loving compassion, mercy, and great love!
827. I am thankful that over the last few weeks while I took a sabbatical from choir, I am now looking forward to practicing with dear Hubs on the Christmas program this year... He sings weekly, too, but, I'm just not up to that these days. This year's Christmas program promises to be so wonderful - the selections are inspiring and full of gospel, yet very heart felt,... for example, I love this one!!!
828. I am very excited that tomorrow our Sunday School class will be going to Smith Mountain Lake for a wonderful afternoon cook out... The environs are so magnificent... To be near that water is so spiritually healing for me.. I am hugely thankful to get to go this year!

829. Dearest Hubs made dinner for us tonight... his specialty, Spaghetti, and a salad... it smells divine!!! Thank you Lord for loving me though my dearest partner in life!!!
love your thankful list :) praise God! for all of your blessings this week. I have been doing Thankful Thursday since 2010 linked up to blog hops but now I do them on my own.. Hope you will stop by and visit my Thankful Thursday http://heavygators.blogspot.com/2018/09/thankful-thursday.html
