Thankful Thursdays~ There Are No Words, But Then Again Maybe There Are~

Posted by on Sep 8, 2011 in Inspiration, Thankful Thursdays | 0 comments

On this Thankful Thursday as we approach the tenth anniversary of 9/11, there are still no words to really describe the sorrow we all feel for our country and the lives lost that day.  The innocence we lost as a nation and as individuals.  As Winters said on his post, how do you describe and explain such a tragedy to children. Frankly, I must bee honest.  I shielded mine.  I shielded them from the pain and hurt I knew they would feel if they watched the videos and heard the recounted tails of horror.  But...

It is 7:00 p.m. Eastern time and Tuesday has nearly come and gone.  Today is the LBD’s Guide to a FabYOUlous you.  A series I love writing. I thought seriously about what to share with you today.  And I pray this speaks to whoever needs to hear it. It spoke to me as I wrote it.  Funny that. As many of you all know, it has been a long four years for Winters and I.  Our family has embraced a lot of change, feelings I have not kept from you. With that change came a lot of sadness and grief.  As Winters...

Power Prayer Girls ~Thankful Thursday ~ Cleaning Day

For as long as I can remember, I have tried to devote Thursday’s as a cleaning day.  So this Thankful Thursday started off by throwing on my oldest, most unattractive clothes and cleaning the toilets. Yes sir, that is where you would have me this morning, and in fact one of my best buddies dropped by and found me in said outfit! It made for a good laugh.  Just as I said last week, you can learn a lot digging in the dirt and you can also learn a lot upside down scrubbing toilets, too.  I am always grateful...

Celebrate your healing no matter how big or how small! In The Power Prayer Girls Handbook, I write about praying not only for others, but also for yourself.  I also mention that when God heals we need to give thanks and glory to God for our healing. God cares about your every need. Pray for your health.  Pray for your physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.  We need to pray specifically for our bodies.  Pray for your mind.  Pray for whatever you need to pray about, but by all means pray! It is so...

Power Prayer Girls ~Thankful Thursday~ Live Well and Thrive!

Yesterday I was in the car and I was moved! I was not moved by the speed of my car. I was not moved by a song on the radio. And I know that is a shock to all of you because I am always, I mean always, moved by music. But no, this time it was a good old commercial that got me. And so I didn’t cry, but I was reminded of something really good. Something I really do believe in. So it moved me. Live Well and Thrive! That is the Kaiser Permanente slogan. I have always loved that.  That message is really quite...
