A Prayer to Say Thank You

Posted on by

We cry, we hope, we call out to God to help.  Sometimes the help is quick, but sometimes we don’t hear the answer that we think is best.  And sometimes the answer to our prayers comes rushing in like a wave of hope, lifting us up with overwhelming love for God.  And that’s how I am today….overwhelmed, thankful, grateful, loving God so much for His provision and lovingkindness.  Thank you, God.  “Praise the Lord!  For he has heard my cry for mercy.  The Lord is my strength and shield.  I trust him with all my heart.  He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy.  I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.”  ~Psalm 28:6-7  Blessings, Lisa

Whatever you’re going through today, don’t give up.  Keep talking to Jesus; He is listening with His whole heart.

Being 3 months old, being a puppy, having your whole world turn snowy overnight…Finnegan having an awesome day!  Hope your day ahead is full of adventure and new things.  Slainte, Lisa

Having scaled the snowy mountain, Finnegan holds fast, legs braced.

"I know that grass is down here somewhere!" Finnegan digs in vain.

“I know that grass is down here somewhere!” Finnegan digs in vain.

Finnegan surrenders to the comforts of a warm couch and a nap.

I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful 2014 to come!  Keep faithful to what God has planned for your life; keep moving forward, just like the little donkey.  Even small steps will get you there eventually!  Blessings, Lisa

“Little Donkey” ~Eric Boswell

Little donkey, little donkey, On the dusty road.

Got to keep on plodding onwards, With your precious load.

Been a long time, little donkey, Through the winter’s night.

Don’t give up now, little donkey, Bethlehem’s in sight

Ring out those bells tonight Bethlehem, Bethlehem.

Follow that star tonight, Bethlehem, Bethlehem.

Little donkey, little donkey, Had a heavy day.

Little donkey, carry Mary safely on her way.

Little donkey, little donkey, On the dusty road.

There are wise men waiting for a Sign to bring them here.

Do not falter, little donkey, There’s a star ahead.

It will guide you, little donkey, To a cattle shed.
