I really wavered between ‘Trust’ and ‘Gift’ for Thankful Thursday this week, but ‘Trust’ ‘won’…Again this week I was reminded that we really can trust only a handful people this side of heaven. There are a lot of mean-spirited people in this world.

Praise God we serve a Loving Father who has conquered all that. There is so much hurt in this world and unfortunately hurting people who rather than seek our Father for healing and compassion, often choose to project their hurt on others to try and help themselves feel better.

The path to heaven is narrow, but there are many who love you, but more than anything, there is our Father, who raises you high and weep tears of pain with you and smile with laughter at your joy.

God bless you Iris for your honesty, your encouragement and your convictions.

Love your list this week Iris and your theme. That verse is written on one of my journals. I bought it to write in during a time when I needed to remind myself that God is really the only one we can trust to never disappoint us. Thanks for continually inspiring me to be more thankful.

Thankful for trust too. One year that was my word of the year. I tried to focus on growing in my ability to trust God for all things. It definitely helped, but I still have times when I battle for control. Trust is so open ended and unknown. But when I do trust, I feel light and free.

Great word!

Thanks.

Hi Iris,
I am really late for the party, in fact it’s almost friday. But wanted to drop in and say I am thankful for you! I know what you mean about “trust” no one, but God and our trusted friends. People will always disappoint us, but God never will.
I need to play catch up on your blog tomorrow. I have been out of touch this week it seems. But I enjoyed reading your testimony last week and I am anxious to read more.
Have a blessed night!’
