SALADS - What I'm Thankful for Today#4

What I'm Thankful for Today #4 - SALADS

About ten years ago I did a series called "365 Days of Being THANKFUL".  Everyday I posted something for which I was thankful and I did this for 365 days.  Well, this year I decided to do a smaller version of that series and post something everyday during the month of November.

Today I am thankful for SALADS.

When I say salad I am talking about all kinds of salads:

- traditional lettuce salad

- potato salad

- chicken salad

- fruit salad

- egg salad

- pasta salad

They're all delicious!! 

The following are some of my favorite salad posts

APPLES - What I'm Thankful for Today#3

What I'm Thankful for Today #3 - APPLES

About ten years ago I did a series called "365 Days of Being THANKFUL".  Everyday I posted something for which I was thankful and I did this for 365 days.  Well, this year I decided to do a smaller version of that series and post something everyday during the month of November.

Today I am thankful for APPLES.

McIntosh & Granny Smith are my favorite apple varieties but they are all very nutritious.  (I'm not a doctor - I'm just listing information that I found online - see my disclaimer below).  Apples can help with the following areas of health:

- helps reduce heart disease

- helps with diabetes

- helps protect against cell damage

- helps with digestion & weight issues

- good for skin health

- helps with bones

- good for hydration 

The following are some of my favorite apple posts

GOD'S LOVE - What I'm Thankful for Today#2

What I'm Thankful for Today #2 - GOD'S LOVE

About ten years ago I did a series called "365 Days of Being THANKFUL".  Everyday I posted something for which I was thankful and I did this for 365 days.  Well, this year I decided to do a smaller version of that series and post something everyday during the month of November.

Today I am thankful for GOD'S LOVE.

I can not even begin to understand God's limitless love for His children (that's us)!  Our Heavenly Father sent His only begotten Son to be sacrificed in our place so that we all might have eternal life!! 

I thought this picture below was perfect for studying 1 John 4:12-21 because of the shape of the leaf - it resembles a heart.  In the Scripture portion below we see that God's love is inside of us through the Holy Spirit.  Whoever believes and declares that Jesus Christ is the Son of God is then filled with the Holy Spirit (see Bible verses below):

Fear is so prevalent in our society today.  I never understood how people can seek and enjoy "fear" (horror) in movies, books and so on.  In the Scripture passage below we see that "fear involves torment."

Let's define:

torment - great physical or mental pain;  harassment, torture, misery.

Why would anyone ever want to feel that way even for a second???!!!!  

Forgiving others is God's love in us.  This can be so difficult, especially when others have wronged us and feel no remorse for doing so.  Whenever I encounter a person who has wronged me and has no desire for repentance, I say this to myself:

"God loves that person just as much as He loves me."

Now, of course God does NOT love the sin, but He does love the person.  Just like it says in the passage below:  "he who loves God must love his brother also."

There's no truer statement than: 

"God is love"

4 SEASONS - What I'm Thankful For Today#1

What I'm Thankful for Today #1 - FOUR SEASONS

About ten years ago I did a series called "365 Days of Being THANKFUL" (You will see the links to that series at the bottom of this post).  Everyday I posted something for which I was thankful and I did this for 365 days.  Well, this year I decided to do a smaller version of that series and post something everyday during the month of November.

Today I am thankful for all 4 SEASONS.

Here in southern Michigan we get almost an equal amount of months each season.  I praise my Heavenly Father for creating all four of them.
