7 Days of Thanks (Day 7)

Well, here we are, the last day of 7 Days of Thanks!! Let’s make it a good one. Hmmm…

Today:

I’m thankful for my readers!

Ya, I’m thankful for all of you who’ve ever read a letter of my stories, poetry or posts.

I’m thankful for every eye that has seen my work,

Every finger that has clicked on me,

And every Heart that has been touched by a Beautiful Truth.

You know, my creative inspiration comes from many different sources but there’s only one source for my motivation…

You!

Because, without you I wouldn't really have a reason to post at all! You're why I keep typing away at my keyboard, scratching away with my pencils, and continually working my imagination. 

So thank you to all who’ve,

Subscribed,

Followed,

Friended,

Tweeted,

Commented,

#1-ed,

And liked my posts!

Without you, I wouldn’t be doing this.

Y’all are the best!!

There ya go, today: I am most thankful for you, my readers.

And so ends our 7 Days of Thanks!! And what an epic week it was! But you’re probably wondering “so what now?” Well, don’t worry, I’ve got some ideas (I always do, ya know) but you’ll just have to wait and see what I post next! For now:

Happy Holidays Y’all!

7 Days of Thanks (Day 6)

Today:

I’m thankful for my horse Lightning

We’ve come a long way from a little girl who had no clue what she was getting into and a chestnut pony without any spots, lol! But over the past ten years The Lord has certainly brought us far, and I can’t wait to see where He will take us next!

We’ve driven cattle,

Climbed trails,

Overcome unimaginable fears and difficulties,

Made a cross-country move,

Ridden in rain, snow, and suffocating Heat waves...

    We’ve recovered from a bad fall that had a difficult consequence but an awesome Happily Ever After (click here for our story). And, this might sound funny to anyone who doesn't work with horses, but: my horse has taught me so much!

I’ve learned about discipline,

freedom,

and certainly patience.
(just to name a few)

Because horses tend to do that to you;

they'll show you sides of yourself that you didn't know you had.

 Lightning is very laid back
Sometimes mischievous

Always hilarious

 And  I love him with all my heart.

So today: I’m thankful for my horse Lightning.

7 Days of Thanks (Day 4)

Today:

I’m thankful for Jesus Christ

I’m thankful that the Lord sent His only Son to take my place and die on the cross for my sins.

I mean, what a sacrifice!

What Love!

That He would do that for me is just amazing.

Him, the Holder of the Universe, the Maker of Man, a Prince who willingly came down to die for me, a mere peasant... I’m overwhelmed and speechless; I can’t describe my appreciation.

For, in truth, I don’t deserve what He did for me.

But He did it anyways because He loves me.

And you know what?

 

He loves you too.

 

He loves you so much, He came down and took your place,

He died for your sins,

All because He loves you!!

All the wrong that you've ever done He's forgiven you,

All the dreams you've ever had, He Believes in you,

And in Him you can do anything!

J

John 3:16-17

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,

that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send His Son into the world
to condemn the world, but to save the world through
Him.

So today: I’m thankful for Jesus and the sacrifice He made for us, for without Him we wouldn’t be.

 

Kk, what about you? "So what are you thankful for today?" Feel free to leave a comment aaaaaaaaand don’t forget to BE RIGHT HERE tomorrow for Day 5 of:

7 Days of Thanks (Day 3)

Today:

I’m thankful for healing

For God’s healing Grace,

and for His strength,

and the ability to overcome anything!

Maybe you know my story, maybe you’ve read my testimony, maybe you’ve been through something difficult and you know what I’m talking about. If that's so then I say:

“Welcome, you’re a survivor, too!!”

    But maybe you haven’t read my story, maybe you don’t know my testimony, and just maybe you’re going through a difficult time right now. Then perhaps you need to hear this:

I was born with a dislocated hip
It took four years of traction and body casts but Jesus healed me and
now I can walk!
Then, when I was ten, I was involved in a horseback riding accident;

I messed up my arm and injured my neck so it was another two years of traction.

But, again, Jesus healed me and now I can not only walk but ride!!

 

The whole ordeal was a true test of my faith and my belief.

It wasn't easy,
but I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything.

I’m a stronger person because of what all I’ve been through,

and my scars make me who I am.

I learned there are no limits to God’s healing,

and it's the same for you too!

    So if you’re going through a hard time right now, please don’t give up hope,

cause God is working in your life, He really is,

and you’re gonna make it through.

I did.

There ya go, today:

I am thankful that God healed me and that I got to share this story again with you.

Soooooooo how bout it? "What are you thankful for today?" Go ahead and leave a comment (you know you want to) but don’t forget to be right here tomorrow for Day 4 of:
