I am planning on posting a daily "thanks" from now to Thanksgiving...November 27th!!
Today I had to start with this one....Give Thanks in all circumstances!! My circumstances are not what normally I would be thinking I'd be thankful for but after lots of prayer and encouragement from so many friends, family and especially my hubby, I am realizing how God is taking care of me through this health ordeal..I have been fighting vasculitis of my kidneys now for over 2 months..actually close to 3 and due to that have been on mega doses of steroids, meds, and am really not feeling like I would like to be feeling!! Some days the pity party takes over and I think why??? why??? But then someone will have an encouraging word for me or a text and God answers my question in His own quiet way...I am so thankful for this..

Mum, I LOVED this post! What a great idea too, to post a gratitude post each day till Thanksgiving. I understand the 'whys'. I had many, many of those days, nights, moments, & I felt such peace when I realized that there was a purpose, & that I was never alone. I would never trade the lessons that I learned through this. Never dreamed that I'd look back & count it a blessing! Love you Mum! Hugs
A great post Mum. It is so easy to let things get Glad you are trusting in God through it and I am praying too. Hugs
I look forward to reading each of your posts this month. I did this last year and am doing it again this year. Learning to live in the circumstances without have a pity party can be difficult. I've thrown my own share of "parties" in the past!
Beautiful post Mum! You are such a faith filled person and I love learning from your example. I so understand the feelings when we have health issues and also the feelings of people that help you through it. I will never forget you calling me and my parents when I was in the hospital. You are going to beat this because we are all praying for you!
Love and blessings!
