Monthly Inspiration

Hello and welcome.

Let me start by apologizing for my long absence from the blog. I won’t give a bunch of excuses for not writing because honestly the many things that have kept my mind occupied and body busy over the last several weeks have not necessarily prevented me from blogging. I will say that I plan to start posting again on a more regular basis.

Even though it’s way late in the month I don’t want to skip our monthly inspiration, mostly because in the many trials our family has experienced over the past several weeks, I have found myself repeatedly thanking God for His love, for his goodness and for answered prayers. I’m also sharing these verses because next week we, in the USA, celebrate our Thanksgiving holiday.

Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings. ~ William Arthur Ward

Gratitude is the healthiest of all human emotions. The more you express gratitude for what you have, the more likely you will have even more to express gratitude for. ~ Zig Ziglar

18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 New International Version

Thanks for visiting. What are you thankful for today?

  1. Ruth, I pray your family is being held closely in Gods tender care. What am I thankful for? Let me count the stars for there is more than I can number in praise to our loving Father. Happy, Blessed Thanksgiving to you and your dear family.

      1. Thank you, Linda. It’s not looking to be that way. My dad is in the hospital right now and when released the plan will be for him to go to rehab. Right now we are taking things one moment at a time and I am blessed to have such a supportive husband and sisters. I also know that my strength during these trying times comes from God.

      2. I’m sorry to hear that about your dad Ruth. It’s always tough when a parent is not doing well and in the hospital. I envy you with your family because they will make it easier to get through these trials and tribulations and yes, God will be there in trying times too. I know you will help your dad and his dog as best you can. I have been there with my mom, so I will keep you in my prayers.
