Being Grateful

November's arrival has me focusing on being grateful.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner (here in America) it is nice to consider all the blessings one enjoys.

Such as beauty found in a blue sky...







wildflowers pushing their way through an old pile of wood posts...

a solitary posy bravely reaching for the sun's rays...

 simple leaves and weeds to sketch...













and last but not least - all of you who show up faithfully each week to pay me a visit.

God Bless

Debbie

"How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you."   1 Thessalonians 3:9

  17. such beautiful piece of writing dear Debbie

    as i always say that REALIZATION OF HAVING BLESSINGS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAT EVEN BLESSINGS because if we are not able to feel what we have everything goes waste
    and life seems miserable

    your November is splendid indeed
    loved the colorful trees
    and your sketch looks delightful :)
    wishing you more joys and endless peace in days ahead my friend!

  20. Lovely scenery, as usual. Is it all covered in snow now??

    Definitely feeling grateful right now because there is so much more peace in my life as compared to this time last year. I know that's not a prerequisite for feeling grateful, but I do appreciate that peace more after turmoil!

  25. My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough. here is his Email: emutemple@gmail.com or call/text him on his WhatsApp +2347012841542
