Thankful Thursday
I can never get over how quickly Thursdays roll around and how much my Thankful list can evolve from the week before…
Here are just a few things for which I am grateful:
1. College friends. Luke and I have talked to two different sets of friends from college this week…One of which is coming to visit us for a few days next week! I am so grateful there is nary a place in the USA I could travel and not have a friend there. I am BESIDE MYSELF over our upcoming visit…I’ll tell you all about it when it is over..:)
2. All your encouraging comments on the ‘I AM’ study. You girls truly make a girl want to love Jesus more and learn more about Him…Thank you for blessing me by participating.
2. Early morning walks and a husband who lets me take them before he goes to work. This is such a great time for praise/prayer/worship and when I am about to speak or teach, a way I can talk out loud to make sure things flow like I want them to…And, while the kids are out of school for the summer, a girl needs a few minutes in the morning to collect herself before the madness of the day begins.
3. Provision. God knows.
4. My friends Iris and Linda who have given me awards for which I have yet to respond by post. I AM WORKING ON IT! :)) I’ve been working like mad trying to get some projects done before our friends come to visit, so the blogging has been weak..:)
5. Ball season is over….we finally have our evenings back! Not that we are any less busy, but now at least we have a little more choice in our activities. We were tired and I was ready for it to be over…I say that now…The fever will be back full force before long.
6. Our churches upcoming missions trip to Montgomery, AL. We went to this area last year and received much more of a blessing than we gave. I can’t wait to go back!
I know as soon as I post this, I will think of many more but I’ll save it for next time…..
For more Thankfuls, go see my precious friend, Iris, at Sting My Heart!
Oh yes, that early morning time works wonders – so quiet and peaceful!
You have a lot going on! I’m still working on my bible study! I feel like the biggest slacker, Lisa—maybe I’ll just keep it for myself. I think I’m the last one to post.
Love those early morning walks!! :)
Blessings~
Oh, dear – will I ever catch up on the I am study. I think I will post two posts for the next couple of weeks – like Sunday and Wednesday and hopefully will join you at the latest one…
How neat that you are having friends come it. It is always great to hang out with ‘out-of-towner’s’. Although you might be busy getting everything ready now – I know the visit will do you good.
Time with God while walking is so neat. I think I need to get up at 3am to have a very early morning with Him. Although that would mean only 3 hours of sleep *sigh*…
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.
Be blessed today and always.
I need to check out your study. I didn’t know about it . . . hope it’s not too late!
Such sweet thankful blessings.
Early morning are a special time with the Lord ~ I wrote about that this week too. Enjoy your company!! Have a blessed TT!
I love early mornings also. Enjoy your time with your company.
In his endless love,

I’m thankful you have such a wonderful thankful list. Have a great day.
Beautiful List! Glad ball has subsided, and so thankful for great friendships near and far! Hope you enjoy your time together. You have really encouraged a lot of us to get moving for an early morning walk with Him.
Blessings!
Great list! Morning walks with the hubby and the Lord are precious indeed! A great reason to be thankful :D
What a great list and joyful heart! Have a wonderful time with your friends next week! Such a blessing to have them visit!
Yea, for having your evenings back. I totally understand.
Great list, sometimes I don’t know how to start my TT list but once I get going it roll off and I could keep listing and listing…how Great God is.
Have a great day.
Beautiful list, Lisa. I hope you have a good time with your friend! Blessings to you!
I too love that time in the morning when I have my quiet time with the Lord. Have a wonderful time with your friend!
I am soooo excited about the mission trip this year. I can’t believe I thought I wouldn’t be able to go. I got my months mixed up!! Love Ya!!!
I love the early mornings too! I am so thankful for finding your blog and the study is so good and I am excited as each new lesson is posted. God is teaching me so much and thank you again for your precious time you give to all of us!
As always, such a sweet list. Thank you my friend for sharing your thankful heart.

Thank you for sharing your list.
I’m new to TT..this is my first week!!! :-)
Loved your list. Your morning walks must be wonderful!!!!! I have been thinking about taking evening walks b/c my hubby is out of the house by 4am – a little too early for me. lol :-)
You have a great list! My husband and I do evening walks and it’s so great too – but I bet the mornings are even better – when everything is so fresh!
Great list!
And, aren’t mission trips always that way. The people ministering always get a great blessing. A great time, indeed.
Much to be thankful for. How great is our God! Thanks for sharing your gratitude so we may be blessed as well!
No doubt you are among the most awarded bloggers, because besides Iris and Linda I too have got a little something for you at my site…Evidently you are loved here in the blog world–how cool is that?
