Thankful Thursday

My blog is a place where I like to write my reflections on finding joy through grief. My prayer is that perhaps, my blog may be of some help to you. One way that has helped me with finding joy through grief is to focus on things that I'm thankful for.  It can be something I'm thankful for right now or it can be something I'm thankful for from the past.
Each Thursday I send a group text message to my three daughters called "Thankful Thursday". We each respond with something we are thankful for. This has been a way for us to stay connected and to share something we are thankful for.
Today I would like to share something I'm thankful for.  I'm thankful for the encouragement found in God's Word. Many times, when I'm feeling sadness, or anxious I will look those words up in the concordance of the Bible or go to www.biblegateway.com to find encouragement.  In Psalm 9:9-10 tells us "The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble."

Feel free to share something you are thankful for in the comments below.

Thank you for visiting my small, humble blog.

With love,
Patty
