#50 - 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 am so thankful for my earthly father (who happens to be celebrating his birthday this week).  I am also thankful for an unusually warm January.  Most importantly I am thankful for God's protection.

"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.  Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."  Ephesians 6:10-12
Becoming a "Christian Soldier" is not about a physical fight but about the spiritual war that we all find ourselves fighting (not by our own might but by God's alone).
Read: Be Strong in the Lord

We have had some very windy days lately and since the snow has melted in the January thaw, we have noticed all of the unraked leaves in our yard.  The first warm day will be spent raking.
