This week's theme is Victory..and I want to share this old song I used to sing when I was still young..
Victory I have in Jesus ChristForgiveness for He was crucifiedFullness in every part of meDeliverance His life has set me freeI'm reigning with Him upon the throneAnd conquering over satan's power belowLiving a life with Christ as Lord and King.I don't remember the lyrics anymore, I hope I got it right..
But it's very true, we have VICTORY because of JESUS. I know I have been victorious over some trials not because I am strong but it's because I have Jesus. One particular thing I am so thankful I have victory over is my being "nearly addicted to alcohol". When I went back to the Lord and repented, He restored me fully and made me victorious over that. He is so great!!
And for this week, I am also thankful for the following;
* Last Sunday's birthday party of our goddaughter Nicole- we love her so much and we her god parents prepared a small party for her. She was so happy and you can see in her eyes how she enjoyed it. She is now two years old.
* For my Brother in laws birthday party too last Tuesday night - I just praise God that even though we are also in need, we can still be a blessing to others, Having two parties in a row means spending money also (we bought the cake for both of them also) , But It's worth it, seeing them happy and enjoying, it's all worth it.
I can't imagine the loads of food I had too, good thing I am still not resorting to
diet pills. Just have to remind my self to do more exercise.
* For the lesson I have learned with regards to married life this week- This one I am really thankful for because I know money can't buy you lessons learned. Life is too short to spend over petty quarrels. I realized that after reading a wife's story who lost her husband eight months after their marriage. And guess what? God send me that email right at the very moment when I was so mad to hubby. God is so AMAZING!!
Anyways, for more thankful hearts visit Lynn of
