Ginny - Gratitude Day 6

Good Morning Girlz!!!  I absolutely LOVE this study!  Last night I was driving to see a friend and I just didn't want to go.  There were things I needed to get done at the house, I wanted to get to bed early, blah, blah, blah, but instead I found myself driving north of town for a multi-hour visit.  On my drive, I told myself to start naming all the good things about this lady and getting to be around her.  I made a list of thankfuls.  It helped.  So, this study is sinking in - yea!

Heard from Nancy yesterday and the oncologist wanted to look at things again on Wednesday, so surgery has been postponed to hopefully Thursday.  Still no news on what this is.  I'll keep y'all posted and thank you for praying!

S - Oh, the depth of the riches - Romans 11:33a

O - There is no limit to how the Lord blesses us.

A - Today's assignment is pretty deep.  I feel like I need to go away to a cabin and pray and fast before I come up with a list like this.  I have 10 this morning, but I want to spend some more time thinking on this tonight and see what other thoughts come to mind.

1.  Salvation - the promise of eternity in Heaven
2.  Peace - I don't have to worry or fear
3.  Provision - He has given me so many tangible things down here on Earth to make life easier & comfortable.
4.  Companionship - He is my friend.  He never leaves me.  He walks with me every day.
5.  Delights - All those intangible things that make me so happy.
6.  His Word - His teachings
7.  Patience - He doesn't give up on me, no matter how many times it takes to get it right.
8.  Forgiveness - Nothing I can do will make Him turn away
9.  Abundance - He has made life so good.  He has protected and blessed at every turn.
10.  Love - Because He loves me I know it will be O.K. 

P - Lord, oh how deep and wide is Your love for us.  Thank you!  I could not make it through life without the above list, and yet I am so undeserving of each one of them.  Thank you for Your grace that keeps lavishing goodness upon me.  You are worthy to be praised!
