Thankful Thursday in Sunny VA
24 May
I am one thankful little chickadee this week. God is good all the time! If you would have heard me yesterday I was singing another song.
My tooth is killing me and it still is. I started a round of antibiotics and am sucking down Orajel by the tube (I switched from Anbesol because I think I was getting immune). But I am now thinking clearly. I have never been through childbirth (I adopted my son), but I think I would rather give that a try than live with this incessant toothache. Today this verse keeps running over and over through my mind:
Jeremiah 29:14 – I will be found by you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”
I am being held captive by my pain today. I need to be joyous for the Lord because He is my healer. Lord, I pray for a healing. I know you heal in many ways, spontaneous and through doctors and medications. Today I pray Lord for your healing touch and guidance. If you care for the birds of the air, how much more do you care for me. Thank you for being the Lord of my life.
I want to give special thanks to God this week for:
…meeting the members of Heather’s church. I’m excited to see where this church is going!
…my husband and BFF putting up with me in my miserable state and all my glory. They both have the patience of a saint.
…watching a movie with my son and the ability and flexibility to do so because my husband is an awesome provider.
…getting a renewed fervor for my business.
…how much better I feel since switching to a wheat free/gluten free diet.
…the love of my friends “in the box”.
…the fact that Jesus died for me.

Bless you sweet one, praying for you.
Father God, please put Your mighty hand of healing on my dear sister Becki. Provide for her needs, and give her rest in You. I know her mouth is hurting, but I thank You that it is also filled with praises for her King. Bless her in a surprising and unexpected way today that makes her bust out in a grin, and let her pain ease and disappear…please, God.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
Thank you for sharing. Praying for your tooth to settle down. Glad you had time to watch a movie with your son. Blessings on your weekend.
Sorry you are having tooth pain, I suffered with it for about four weeks and never could find out what was wrong. Childbirth was easier! Thanks for sharing.
Yay! Deena prayed for you… she’s powerful…
And I love her!
I’m so glad you’re here and so very thankful for you, as I have mentioned many, many times…
