Give thanks~ week 4

Colossians 3:17 (KJV)

"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."

What am I thankful for today?

I am thankful for all that God has blessed my family with this year. I'm also thankful God is faithful to never leave or forsake us when facing times of uncertainty and testing. We remained calm, trusted in the Lord, left things in the Father's hands, and things turned out well. Praise be to our Heavenly Father!

TSW Daybook~ November 2019

For Today: 11/4/19

_____________________________

Looking out my window

It’s a beautiful sunny Fall day. Our high for today is 66 degrees.

I am thinking

I’m glad holiday baking sales will start soon. I seriously need to stock up on some pantry staples.

I am thankful

For God’s provision during a power outage our city had a week ago. We had lots of rain and straight-line winds. It knocked down trees everywhere which caused them to fall in the streets and on power lines. Over 30,000 families were without electricity for 3-5 days. We had to do many things by candlelight. Street and traffic lights were out in many places. By God’s grace, we worked together as a family and weathered the storm in peace.

One of my favorite things

Watching birds of all kinds gather all around the bird feeder enjoying the food I put out for them. Another thing I love is looking at the squirrels running from tree to tree gathering up their nuts during the Fall. :-)

I am creating

Cleaning out my recipe section in my Holiday notebook. I’m taking out recipes I don’t use so I’ll only have what we enjoy the most.

I am wearing

A green long-sleeved shirt and Khakis pants.

I am reading

Still reading through the book of Philippians for the ladies online bible study.

I’m watching

Reasons why a wife Won’t follow her husband on YouTube. There is also videos on “Why a husband isn’t leading like Jesus”, “How to encourage your husband to lead when he doesn’t know how”, and “How a husband can lead a strong-willed wife”.

I am hoping

To finalize plans for Thanksgiving before the end of next week.

I am learning

About art/papercut journaling. Looking at Peggy’s Papercut Journey pictures has really sparked an interest for me.

In my kitchen

Every other week I have to make up a batch of Ghee. What can I say? This stuff is so useful in my everyday cooking. I can’t afford to pay the prices for it at the store. I come out cheaper making it myself. I decided to try making some Coconut Ghee since I had some coconut oil. I like it so much I may just make this more often than the regular I’ve been making.

Board room

I love looking for something new to cook during the Fall. Here are some things I have or plan to try https://www.pinterest.com/ML0TB/fall~autumn/meal-ideas/.

Post Script

Since I’ve been talking about Ghee lately, I should share some helpful info. You can learn some things about its benefits and uses here https://empoweredsustenance.com/benefits-of-ghee/.

Shared Quote

“It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.”

-Mark Twain

A moment from my day

Gumbo

Chicken and Sausage Gumbo is what’s for dinner tonight. Right now I’m making bone broth in the crockpot.
