Prayers & Thankful For's 14th March 08

Good am all, Prayers asked for my Gpa. He's still hanging in but fell out of his wheelchair yesterday and got some cuts and bruises. Prayers for my buggas & I who are battling this incredibly potent allergy season (among the MANY others). Prayers for Luvitsunny to get rest and have a smooth day. Prayers for Trish and her struggles and successes all at the same time. Prayers for some family who keep making decisions that are not benefit but I've chosen NOT to be the fixer and let them make their mistakes and fix things themselves. What are YOU thankful for today? I am thankful my heart is beating! I am thankful that I'm awake and alive. I am thankful to get my day moving! Enjoy your Monday! Kat

Good morning Kat... First of all...I'm thankful I found this post. I have been to this forum b4, but not in a long time. I saw the post that Lisa made a few days ago about making a list of things we're thankful for and have been blessed with and thought, wow, that is a great idea. I'm gonna start doing that. I need to focus on what I'm blessed with, and not dwell on the trials I go thru. I've got several things on my plate here lately with my hubby and sons medically and here lately I've been so overwhelmed and don't know how I'm gonna make it thru the day. So I do the only thing I know how to do...take it to my God and give it to him. He has helped me...now I truly feel like I know what the author of "Footprints in the Sand" felt when he wrote that poem. Thanks for this thread...and from now on...you'll see me daily... Rhonda

Good am Rhonda, I'm GLAD to see you here and look forward to hearing from you each day. Many folks stop by but don't hang around. This is something I HAVE to do for myself and I WANT to share with others. Its my way of giving back to others who have given so much to me. All best, Kat

Hi Rhonda, I'm glad you "shopped" and found the site. Regulars really depend upon each other for prayer support in many areas......there is a lot going on with many of us. We tend to "love deeper" on this forum. I hope you do come daily....I try. But I know, that without a doubt, if I have an issue....these are friends who will pray WITH me and FOR me. ....and I, for them! Welcome. luvitsunnyv

KK....thank you for your prayers. I will probably "crash" tonight after 40+ hours without sleep, but God has sustained me through this day...that's for sure. I almost had a dissappointment though, when I found out that my last nursing class didn't end until July 28th. I thought I might have to cancel my mission trip to Peru....but, Praise God...He wants me there. The Professor said I could take the test BEFORE July 26th which is when I am scheduled to leave. I'm really sorry to hear about your Grandpa. I am grateful to God that there were no broken bones and only bruises. I have come to realize gratitude for God's cushioning....I mean, things in our lives may already be in "play" because of God's permissive will for special people.....He knows our faith....He knows our attitude AND He recognizes our gratitude, so therefore, He "cushions" the adverse events in our lives. It is a priviledge to pray for the needs of you and Christianity Board forum friends. Luvitsunnyv
