Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report #31

#31 - 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 medical devices that aid with physical ailments and help make life easier.  I have also been thankful for Ophthalmologists.  Most importantly I have been thankful strength that my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ gives me daily.


"Who is wise and understanding among you?  Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.  But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.  Such 'wisdom' does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil.  For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.  But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure;  then peace loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.  Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness." 
James 3:13-18
I'm sure we have all heard the saying that "actions speak louder than words" - that's the topic for this post (link below).

I just finished my last batch of grape juice - 65 quarts in total (it was a good grape year).  We are also enjoying cool September nights.

About 3 years ago I shared with you my easy stove-top version of Crème Brulee.  This recipe is over-the-top delicious because it is Coffee Crème Brulee!:
