~Thankful Thursday~ Random~

*
May The Lord Bless And Keep You


*I'm thankful for PEACE, COMFORT AND HOPE!
*I'm thankful for Life;
*I'm thankful for blessings;
*I'm thankful you sent your Son so that we may have HOPE of new life;
*I'm thankful for the results Jan got today! How awesome is our God?

*I'm thankful for comments left on by blog;
*I'm thankful for all friends;

*I'm thankful for the seasons and that summer is here;
*Lastly, I'm thankful for my Rippee. He has a birthday today, July 10. He will be 4.

I would ask that you keep Jan in your prayers. She is beginning a new clinical trial tomorrow. Prayer she has no long term side effects from these meds; and pray that if she has any side effects while on the meds that they be minimal. Pray this treatment she is the one that will "kick her cancer's booty!" Jan has handled this cancer with such GRACE. I stand amazed and so very proud of her.

Please pray for our family as we strive to help Jan, but most especially pray for my Mom and Jan's husband Gerald. This is especially stressful for them.

I would also ask that you remember me as I'm starting this new job search. Pray that I will "Be Still and Listen" so that I will know where I will best fit. Although I have peace, it is uncomfortable.

Thankful Thursday is hosted by Iris at Sting My Heart.

Hi Cheryl,
I'm still praying for Jan...in fact I just prayed for her about 30minutes ago. Happy Birthday to Ripley!! My little Tuffy turns 3 on July 18th! I love how you're being "still and listening" so the Lord can speak to you about your new job! Hope the hunt goes well.

I'm thankful that God's in control and we can trust Him with our loved one's health (Jan) and our job pursuits and everything else in between. But I know how the waiting time can be tough. I just got a job and I can relate!
