I am grateful today for the love of Jesus Christ flowing through my words, filter by the Holy Spirit!! Today this day I am chosing to love better, bigger and out loud!
I am grateful for God always providing for me and my family! I am also grateful for God’s love and the wonderful family He has given me!
I am grateful for God’s mercy. I would have missed the mark on so many different occasions with God or had gone and done my own thing instead of waiting on God and totally messed everything up. What does God do?? Brushes me off, pick me up, gives me a great big hug and lets me know that he stil loves me.
God is too awesome for words!!!!!!
our god is a great and wonderful god, we pray daily for him to use us in every way he wants.
I really can do all things through christ who strenghtens me!!
I am also so grateful to God and I am so thankful for my family that he has given me and all that God has done in their lives. Just seeing my daughter today and seeing the changes that god has made makes me realize what a powerful God he is and how important our prayers are.
I love to thank the Lord Jesus Christ for His intimate presence in my daily life here in QATAR.

Thankful for His Spirit’ s leading and power, His provisions,and miracles.
Reasons to be grateful about the Lord never runs out.
Praise Him with all our hearts!!!!
I am thankful for so much that it is hard to put it into words. I am thankful that God is calling my sons back to him and they are turning their ear to his voice. They are not obeying yet, but they are open to listen. I am thankful that God provided me a husband that has the ability to love me unconditionally. Without experiencing it firsthand, I don’t think I could have understood that love like that exists.
I am grateful for God’s grace which is sufficient enough for me.
I am thankful for the gift of salvation that was offered to me.
I am grateful not to be homeless, but to have a room in a nice home with family all around me who love and care about me.
I am grateful for the good health that I have, and that all my needs are met.
I am grateful that God loves a sinner such as me and has offered me eternal life in His kingdom.

Oh I do ever have so much to be thankful for…His life, Love & blood, forgiveness, restoration, bought back, deliverance. How He has brought me through trials & sorrows & I can look back and see His Presence & Grace. Oh yes I exclaim ” Hallalujah, what a Savior is mine “.Amen I love you Jesus
I am soooo Thankful for all God has done for me and my family. God has seen me through some very rough times this past 7 months. As I look back on them I cannot for the world of my mind see how I came through, But this I know for sure, God was there all the time even when I thought he was not. I am very Greatful for that. And I pray that he will continue to keep me and my family close. I am thankful everyday and for every way he has made possible for us. For the impossible for me, is always possible for him.
Thank you JEHOVAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am thankful that many times when I tried to drive in my life, the Lord took over. I am grateful how the Lord never forsake me, how He always lead me. I am thankful for the Lord providing three healthy sons when they should not have been. I am grateful that the Lord provided me a job recently and is providing me the wisdom and knowledge to perform it. I am thankful for my home, my health, my car, my friends which the Lord ALL provided. Without Him I have nothing.
grateful in the knowledge He is with me even when I get in these times I try do things myself and get anxious until I give it all over to Him

The gift of life!!….and the gift of His beautiful creation!! Thank You my Lord….thank You so very, very much!
I am grateful for mentors, individuals who have poured generously into my life. Today, I stand on the broad shoulders of people whose words and actions have etched grooves of love, honesty, respect, generosity, transparency, fearing God, and reverence for God’s word. I don’t want to ever forget my “soul shapers.”
