Thankful Thursdays


Sonya, thank you so much for continuing with Thankful Thursdays. I love to BRAG ON MY GOD!


1. That Jesus is on the throne, not the enemy.


2. The opportunity to bless a friend on their anniversary by providing a safe home for their 2 year old. They celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary. We had a BLAST with that precious little one!


3. The opportunity that both my husband and I were able to help with the youth group in our church last night. What joy there is in this group of young men and women.


4. God's word continues to come alive more and more all the time for me and to me. So amazing!


5. The sensitivity of my Man and his tender ways with me and towards me.

6. A girlfriend ordered "Yolanda's" on the Mexican menu this week, and sent me the picture, God is so clever at how He gets our attention to pray for one another.

7. A class-mate called me this week, we've not talked for probably 8-10 years, just out of the blue. The cool thing is that I had been trying to locate her last week, she shared that I've been heavy on her heart. She used to go to church, and I'm not sure that she does now. So I'm thinking what a neat time of ministry, and how God orchestrated her phone call.



**If it comes to your mind please offer a prayer for my Mother-in-law as she is in the hospital. And also a dear precious close friend of mine that has been diagnosed with breast cancer a few weeks ago. Just this week she and her husband were told she would need a double mastectomy. Thank you for praying for those close to my heart. YOU WILL NEVER WASTE A PRAYER ON ME!**





Lovingly,


Yolanda

My heart aches for your friend who has been diagnosed w/breast cancer. The road ahead of her is long, but she will find the strength she needs in Jesus. I speak from personal experience. Blessings, SusanD
