Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.

~Philippians 4:4-8

Today's Thankful Heart - Nov 7th

Today I'm thankful for, praise God for, rejoice because:
  • God really does turn what man means for evil to good for His Name's sake. I have been blasted horribly the last two days for a post I did awhile back. I still stand by that post, however I had to close down the comments on it today. The more looking into the comments I did, the more God started to reveal a few things to me that I'll post on my Ang4him blog later. He really is gracious and in control though!
  • my wonderful friends over at 1Peter3 who have stood by my with wonderful words of wisdom and encouragement through this. Maybe it should not have surprised me to be attacked as I was, but it did catch me off guard. Thank you all for your wonderful and godly support. Thank you Lord for putting this group in my life, they have been there for me more times than I can remember.
  • It's Friday!
  • My hubby washed laundry that needed to be done, has picked up the kids and gotten milk. I just have to pick up the cheese pizza for the kids now! He is so awesome. Of course, now I have to fold the laundry :)
  • My kids - God's gift to us. Yes, sometimes I want to strangle them but they are just so adorable. The boys this morning were running around with their blankets tucked in their shirts "out to save the day" as the oldest kept screaming as he ran through the house (and then promptly ran into a door b/c he put the "cape" over his head!)
