Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report #88

#88 - 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 for forests, woods and glorious Autumn color.  I am thankful for cooler temperatures.  I am most thankful that God speaks to us through His Word (the Bible) and It is constantly relevant for whatever I am going through at that moment. 


"A happy heart makes the face cheerful." 
Proverbs 15:13


One of the ways that Jesus' love shines through us is by showing our happiness and through our laughter.

Our sweet potato crop is going to be a small one this year.  We had early critter destruction and after we put up a fence they just didn't have enough time to recover.  Almost everything else that we grew was a record breaking harvest year for us, so I'm not that sad about our sweet potatoes.  They will be better next year.
