I am always blessed with Thankful Thursday. This is the day that the Lord has reserved for me to bring back to Him all the blessings that He shared to me. I am thankful :
For my 13 year old son Tedd, who led out in the devotional to about a hundred young people, parents and children. He presented : " In All Circumstances Give Thanks." He talked about the Haiti events which is comparable to Job's catastrophe in the Bible, and how everything worked out for Job because he believed in a God Almighty. He even presented video clips on Haiti with all the stats involved. He ended His devotional talk with a challenge and a prayer. We are very proud of him for delivering this devotional to the people of the Lord.
For 15 year old daughter, Ksha, who is very active in church activities and led out in an outreach program for underprivileged children. She taught them songs, she sang a special song about God's love, taught them how to draw, and participated the feeding program after they have done all the lessons. Praise the Lord for helping us bring up kids on fire serving the Lord.
For my mom, who is now safely back home. She was hospitalized this week after she collapsed in the school where she worked as a volunteer principal. We told her to stop working and just rest, but we can't beat her at this. She said she will die working for the Lord. The Lord provides her good health ahead.
For my husband, who is now out for medical outreach. Bless his team as they do their medical work today. Am praying for safety and success for the outreach team to the least of our brothers. I miss this activity but I have class today. The group may be due home late at night.
For friends on the blogsphere.....whew...am alone right now 'coz everybody is out, my class is at at 5 p.m., but you are there....cheering everyone on.....come on guys.....let's cheer one another....this old weary world needs your smile....Smile....and hug somebody today.
Hugs and kisses,
Gemini
