#49 - 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 last year, 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 the United States of America, freedom and the peaceful change of power.  I am deeply thankful that I can go to my Lord in prayer any second of any day and He WILL hear me.

"To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul;  in you I trust, O my God.  Do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.  No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame, but they will be put to shame who are treacherous without excuse."  Psalm 25:1-3
Trust is a characteristic that is disappearing in our society - we all have to be in control.  That is NOT what God wants - we must trust Him in every situation:
