Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report #84

#84 - 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 2 years ago, 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 that a medical disaster was avoided.  I am so thankful for my clever and funny husband.  I am most thankful that my Lord and Savior guides and protects me everyday.





“Whoever corrects a mocker invites insults:  whoever rebukes the wicked incurs abuse.  Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you;  rebuke the wise and they will love you.  Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still;  teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.  The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.  For through wisdom your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.  If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you;  if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer." 
Proverbs 9: 7 - 12
We have to be careful that when we are trying to be light hearted and funny that that does not turn into something that is mocking and insulting.

We are at the end of the 90 degree string of weather so hopefully my garden will get back to Autumn normal for this area.  I plan on digging the potatoes soon.
