Thankful Thursday ~ Compassion

“When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.” ~ Mark 6:34 (ESV)

Good evening Ladies :) – How was your week? I hope that you had a great one. Although I had my ups and downs this past week, the Lord truly has been teaching me quite a few things about compassion…

  • Thank You Lord for teaching me through Your Word about compassion. I am grateful that You constantly work on my heart so I can see things Your way…
  • Thank you my dear friends that you have not passed judgment on my post about fear I had published last Sunday at Laced with Grace…
  • Thank you Linda and Mama Bear for the wonderful awards you have graced Sting my Heart with this past week…I was blown away since I haven’t been blogging this much. I will make sure that I will pass on these awards in the up-coming week…
  • Thank You Lord for quiting my heart today. I was a little up-set that much is expected to be completed. You reminded me that I honor You by doing my work with the cheerful heart (and don’t grumble so much…)…
  • Thank You Lord for showing Your compassion to “On the Rock” and her beloved. Thank You for gracing her family with a little baby boy
  • Thank you my beloved Sweetheart – you are a gem! I know that I don’t make sense sometimes and you don’t always understand me…but you still love me…
  • Last but not least…Thank you my dear readers of Sting my Heart. Without you, Thankful Thursday would not be what it is…

What are you thankful for this week? Please do share with us…If you have written your own Thankful post this week, please add your link below. As your time permits, please visit other participants…

Thank you so much for stopping by today. May our Lord continue to teach us about His compassion so that we may see things His way.

Blessings to you and yours…

    It scares me when I recall where I have left my life slip…I am thankful for God’s compassion. And I’m thankful for you and TT. Have a beautiful week. Oh and another thing: oftentimes, forcing ourselves to go around our daily tasks with a thankful attitude, makes us smile trully in the end. Thank you.

    One question about TT… are we supposed to follow your lead in the choice of the word? I’ve noticed some do and some don’t. It’s taken me a few weeks for this light to click on and notice that.
