#93 - 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 indoor heating and furnace repair company that sends out repair help on a Holiday weekend. I am most thankful that God provides even when I didn't know that I needed something.
"This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, 'Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.' All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 'The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel' - which means, 'God with us.' When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus." Matthew 1: 18 - 25
Advent season starts in a few days - we will begin our anticipation of Jesus' birth through song:
