One of the reasons why I write this blog is because God has been so good to me. When I left my daughter’s father and got divorced, I was making an average of $150.00 per week. I left because of how the marriage was affecting my daughter. I knew that she could no longer remain in a hostile environment and be ok.
I had many trials. Some of them brought on by my own missteps. However, God was faithful. He made sure that we were never without a roof over our heads. He made sure that we had food on the table. She was able to attend the best schools. She has very fond memories of her childhood. God also made a way for me to increase my income substantially within a relatively short time. He provided me with several vehicles.
There are many things that I am thankful to God for. There were times when my life was in danger, and He protected me. After all that I have been through and being able to see the grace that God has provided, makes it easier for me to trust Him today. He has not failed me yet. Even the things that seem to be bad He has been able to use for my good. Psalm 34:8 “Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.”
What are you grateful to the Lord for today? As surely as He has blessed me, He has blessed you. How has He provided for you? What miracles have you experienced? What are you thankful for today? I encourage you to share in the “comments” what God has done for you. It will lift up His name and encourage someone else.
Have a blessed Friday and a weekend filled with His joy and presence.
Great post!
I am thankful for the blessing of being born again since childhood.
