Counting My Blessings

...they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what He has done.
Psalm 64:9

I will begin this year proclaiming God's works and pondering what He has done. Counting My Blessings will be a journal where I will share what God has done in my life throughout the coming weeks.

Me. Forgive me for not smiling:) (above)

My lovely mother and I. (below)
New Years was great, especially spending it with the most important and encouraging people in my life, my brothers and sisters in Christ. The service began with praise and worship. Then, we joined in the Lord's Supper, a beautiful act in remembrance of Christ's sacrifice for us. As the night drew on, several shared testimonies.  God is so good!!!

After a snack and many laughs with friends and a funny uncle, we headed upstairs to continue the blessed service. I truly enjoyed myself in the Lord's presence, and expect to see more of His goodness.

Monday

My mom and I went to my grandmother's house. We enjoyed a snack together and she made us a pitcher of a delicious oatmeal drink.

My dad was off from work and we enjoyed a day together.

Tuesday

This was the first Tuesday prayer service of the year. I prayed for my continued health and thanked the Lord that He has provided for my divine health.  

My mom, sister and I went food shopping and I thank God that my little sister behaved so well and we made it back home in record time!!

Wednesday

I wrote out my goals for this month.  I also memorized my scripture memory verse which is: 
Exodus 14:14, "The Lord Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm."

Thursday

This was the first Thursday service of the year.  Pastor preached from John 5: 1-15.  Persistence is key!!!

Friday

We went to Target and scored on some great finds.

There was also a box of Gobstoppers, but the box is nearly empty:|

My mom attempted a new recipe tonight and it was really good:)

I would enjoy to read all the wonderful blessings that the Lord is showering you with.  Link up your "Counting My Blessings"!

    May you be continually blessed as you record the Lord's tender mercies.
