Thankful Living is Thanks Giving.

 

Thankful Living is Thanks Giving.

I was recently reminded of the following..

People who know who they are, who possess a clear sense of their mission, and who understand God's plan and purpose for their lives, are people who experience genuine fulfillment. That does not mean they do not face extreme obstacles. Rather, it means they have learned to face those challenges in ways that transform obstacles into opportunities. Rather than stumbling over them, they press on through them.

  2. Wow, this is so inspiring and I really needed this message today. Thank you. November through February is a hard time of year for me. My purpose seems to be strongly tied to gardening and growing things, so I guess that makes sense. What a beautiful image for this post, too. Bless you. :)

  4. Very true observation. I have always admired those who have a strong sense of themselves and what they are going to do in life.

  8. Dear One, did you know, that there are people, who are able to live, with out a Faith? Really. Really. Really.

    And did you know, that they can be quite logical, all on their own, by use of their own brain? I think you are in agreement with most of my views. So this shows, I think.

    But did you know, we are not *allowed* to state our views, all that much???

    Like Christians _are_ allowed to state their views, over and over and over????

    Consider this please.

    For a minute or two.

    You can.

    I can't.

    Because it might not go over so well, in Pretty Blog Land.

    And I happen to enjoy being accepted, in Pretty Blog Land.

    But!!!!!!

    I do get a bit 'cranky,' at times, with all the Faith I read, in many Pretty Blog Land posts.

    It's hard to comment on them.

    Oh well.... That's life I guess.

    Just sayin'....
