Yesterday as I was preparing the guest bedroom for some upcoming visitors, I stole a few moments to read the Bible I have on a decorator table in the room. (As you might surmise, focusing on a task and sticking to it is not always my strong suit.) I let the Bible "fall" open and began reading where it landed.
One of the verses I read was Proverbs 18:4: "Wise words are like deep waters; wisdom flows from the wise like a bubbling brook." At that moment I knew what my Thankful Thursday post would be...
I consider myself blessed that God has placed some very wise people in my life. I am thankful for each one whether they are male or female, young or old, or near or far.
What are you thankful for today?
P.S. I am also thankful and thrilled that this family has a court date for their daughter in Ethiopia. Soon they will travel to Ethiopia to bring home two children to their family.

Right now I am very grateful to be supported by Christian women who can keep me and my spirit on track and focused.
Your Thankful Thursdays are a blessing. Even to me on a Tuesday!
thank you for keeping us on track with your Thankful Thursday's:) I always love to reflect after reading your thoughts.
What a beautiful passage. I often pray that I will speak with wisdom and not what I think needs to be said.
I think it's great that you have a Bible on your guest room night stand!
