Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report #26

#26 - Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report

If you were following this blog in 2015 then you will be familiar with my "365 Days of Being Thankful" challenge.  I have missed reporting on my thankfulness since I finished my challenge back in November so I decided to at least give a weekly Thankfulness Report & include a Growth Report also.  Growth in our Christian walk, growth in the garden & growth on this blog.  Finally, I am also including a "Posts From the Past" feature - ENJOY!


This week I have been thankful for doctors and nurses.  I am especially thankful for prayer - every second of every day.


"Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.  You are my friends if you do what I command.  I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business.  Instead, I have called you friends , for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.  You did not choose me, but I chose you to go and bear fruit - fruit that will last.  Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.  This is my command:  Love each other." 
John 15: 13 - 17
The Bible study below featured on "fruit" - not the kind we eat but spiritual fruit from God.

Our garden is so horribly dry - we keep just missing storms.  Even so, it has been a wonderful garden year and we are still swimming in zucchini and we are enjoying all of the new and old ways to prepare this versatile veggie.
