Thankful Thursday

Good Morning! Thanks to Truth for the Journey for encouraging us all to be more thankful!

Here's my list:

1. I am thankful for God's provision. He amazes me on a regular basis by his attention to detail.

2. I am thankful for good friends and neighbors who have helped us get our house ready to sell. Lots of help doing things we don't know how to do has saved us a ton of money! Thanks friends.

3. I am thankful for the TeamKID program at GBF. Savannah has learned so much from the stories, verses, lessons and teachers. I have watched her grow spiritually and that makes me very happy...and thankful.

4. I am thankful for the Mission Community Garden. There are peppers on the pepper plants and other plants that are getting ready to produce. Exciting!

5. I am thankful for an unexpected visit from a friend the other day. Came just in the nick of time...right before I was going to throw a pity party for myself! Thank you God for seeing my need...and thank you friend for thinking of me!

So, what are you thankful for? Leave a comment below!

Thanks for giving your heart, time and talents to our kids!

Wacky Hair Night at TeamKID

Tonight is Wacky Hair Night at TeamKID. The kids are pumped...in fact Savannah's been pretty much talking about it non-stop since last week. The worker's all have something crazy in mind...in fact I've heard wigs...hair color and more are all to be expected. I love it!

I think it's great that we are teaching this generation that being a Christian isn't boring. That we can have fun, live life with a good attitude and be excited about what God has in store for us. This isn't the church of the next generation....this is the church now. Many of these kids are beginning their walk with Christ and are learning the foundations that many of the adults I know don't even have yet. They are moldable, teachable and soaking things up at this age. What a gift God has given us (parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers, preachers) to fill these kids up with love for God and His Word. I love that over and over in God's Word He used kids and teens. I think we all need a wake up call if we don't think these kids are God's instruments as much as we are...if not more...because they are ready...like a sponge to soak up the goodness of God and share it with others.

Didn't mean to be preachy today! Enjoy the pic of Savannah ready for TeamKID!
