November Thankfulness | Day Thirteen

THIRTEEN. Powerful, inspiring words, quotes, messages.

WORDS we speak and WORDS we hear from others can either be HURTFUL or HELPFUL.

Today, I am thankful for the kind words that others have said to me. Sometimes on what I thought was my worst day ever, a kind person spoke a couple of soft spoken words from the heart and completely changed my outlook, mood and day possibly my whole life.

Words have power people. ALOT.

Please think about things before you say them......I myself, still havent mastered this one but I sure am thankful that I recognize the need for people to hear kind words from me. God wants us to help each other. Who would have thought things coming out of your mouth could make or break someone.? It can, you just never know what a person is going through and we all need to really be aware of that. 

I havent been able to attend Bible Study in a couple of weeks and I feel a little lost without it, but atleast I can take a few minutes while working from home to write what God has on my heart today. 

I know to majority of you are already switching gears from Fall to Christmas. Christmas has already filled the stores, and some have already tucked away the pumpkin decor in exchange for tree's and mistletoe. I myself get lost in Pinterest in the Holiday category. Hey, I'm a planner! :)
I'm not decided yet exactly when I want to switch gears yet, but I tell you one thing, I am loving Fall and for some reason, I just am bursting with Thankfulness a little more this year...God is so good.

But for some its not so great - this time of year is DOWNRIGHT tough, painful, unbearable, and lonely.

Maybe that's you.

Maybe you have lost a child?  Or a spouse? Or a parent?

Maybe you have lost a job?  Or are going through a terrible illness? 

Maybe you are in a new city and feel isolated?  Or you are lonely and this season makes you feel more alone?

Maybe you are going through Divorce?

Maybe you have anxiety stealing your joy?

Maybe you feel as if your once friends you had don't love you anymore?

I want you to email me. Seriously.
