Prayers & Promises Week #4

I have enjoyed the weekly verses on thankfulness. Thinking about thankfulness this week, I'm wondering if you ever write thank you notes. We got two in the mail this past week. This is one of the things mentioned in the book I read recently Choosing Gratitude. Many times we do not take the time to write thank yous. Saying thank you is nice when you receive something but going an extra step and jotting a thank you note to acknowledge a gift is especially meaningful. I must say this is something my Mom taught me to do and something I want to teach Caleb to do. It is such a simple thing really and just takes a little time. Think of someone this week that you need to thank and take the time to do that! It will probably make their day!

This week's verse is Psalm 28:7--

"The Lord is my strength and shield; my heart trusts in him and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song."

Do you have any prayer requests to share this week? I realized last week I forgot to post prayer requests. It seems I'm forgetting one right now for this week, but please remember the following in your prayers:

~ Denise and Eddie. Continue to pray for healing as well as their financial needs.

~ Charlotte. She shared about her upcoming surgery and asked for prayers.

~ Steve--recently diagnosed with kidney cancer.

~ continue to remember Haiti and the efforts going on there to help the people.

~ my boys! My son woke up sick Thursday morning. I thought it was allergies but in the afternoon he was running fever. I thankfully was able to get an appointment with his doctor Friday afternoon and he felt he had the flu. He started on Tamiflu and was so much better on Saturday. My husband though woke up in the night with a major ear ache. He went to the clinic and has an ear infection.

Thank you for visiting today on Spiritual Sundays.

Have a day of blessings!
