Thankful Thursday

thur

 

God has really been so good to my family. When I look back at the hard times that we’ve been through (or when I hear my parents reminisce the past), I always feel more than grateful to God. I owe God a lot. We owe God a lot. And it’s such a shame that sometimes I go off the “good track.”

 

But.

I’m thankful for the chance to retrace my steps –again and again– back to God.

 

I’m thankful for a loving God who never lets me go.

 

I’m thankful for God’s provision and also, for these cool gifts I received a couple of days ago.

Last but not the least, I am thankful for the rich life (not so much in material sense) He has blessed my mother -who celebrated her birthday last Tuesday. She’s always been our anchor and I pray for good health and more years for her to serve the Lord. My father and sister will also be celebrating their birthdays few days from now –thank you Lord for the wonderful years that had gone by and for the years that are yet to come.

Thankful Thursday

Today, I’m thankful for the blessing God has showered on us.

I’m thankful that I found the perfect wardrobe cabinet for us. The old one was too easy for him that he kept on doing this…

Also, I had to change cabinet because my son is growing up so fast and so are his clothes (the size at least, but not the number).

I’m thankful that despite the news of rice shortage in this country, we still have rice during mealtimes.

I’m thankful that after a long 15-hour flight, Houston arrived safely in his training base (at least for the next 3 weeks).

I’m missing him big time can you tell that I’m trying not to get so emo now especially since I couldn’t call him anytime that I want to but I’m thankful for technology that enables me to send SMS to him; and he to me.

I’m thankful that when I ask my son to pray, he can say “The Name Of The Father, The Son, the Holy Spirit, Amen.” His sign of the cross needs improvement though. :-)

You Know That…

You know that your kid is spending to much time with their grandparent/s when they tell you:

Mama, sing -please - From Russia (With Love).

 

 

About Author

Living somewhere in the tropics, I have sentenced myself to mind-time-word consuming and rigid finger-exercise otherwise known as blogging. Unknowingly from the start. Now it has become an addiction. So now, I am not only an old-fashioned mother, a trying-hard sweet wife, a silly telco engineer and patient housemaid but a trying-hard-to-sound-smart blogger as well. Call me Mama Meji. And I am blogging about nonsense a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g. Thanks for paying a visit. I’ll sure return the favor but if I cannot do so the soonest, just think that I’m still doing what I can with a week-old laundry. Or I’m still trying to break free from my son’s and/or my sweet hub tight embrace and dodge wet kisses. Or the aliens have abducted and kept me from romancing the keyboards. To find out about these aliens, you may email me at zamejias [-at-] makimeji [-dot-] com.
