Remembering you in prayer this morning, dear friend. I enjoyed the quotes and verses you have shared here today. John and I thank you for your prayers.
ReplyDeleteI am back to blogging and a new business. Your little cove is the first place I went. I can't tell you how much it inspired me this morning. I am going through the lesson of learning how to be happy under any circumstances...God has been faithful and it is just a matter of maturing. Becoming more patient with things I have no control over. Learning to Put Him first in all things. I will be having a give away this week and wanted to make sure you knew about it. It will be for a gift certificate in my shop. Please stop by and let me know what you think...this is the hardest part...putting it out there. I would really value your opinion.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day,
Karen Hoida
Oh, I have missed my visits here at Thistle Cove...
ReplyDeleteSome of these quotes made me laugh out loud...Merton...Barzan...but Bourget's will be the one I ponder today...and probably share on Facebook this week! Thank you, Sandra...
I go back to Phil. 4:8 a lot. It's really helped keep my thoughts from dwelling on vain imaginations.
ReplyDeleteThis is so true! We have to be careful what we think...Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSweet Summer Blessings!
ReplyDeleteSo true about our thoughts turning into action, etc. into character.

Thank you for this wonderful Sunday-Post, dear Thistle!
ReplyDeleteI love Philippians 4:8 VERY much.
We pray in our church every Sunday:
"So let us confess, that we have transgressed with thoughts, words and dees."
Since short time I try to watch my thoughts better, and whwn I hear a bad one, I send a good one after! A good trick :)
These are beautiful and important exhortations to guard our thoughts, to pay attention to what is in our hearts. I also love Philippians 4:8 - one of my favorite verses!
ReplyDeleteCould you direct some hummers my way, Sandra? :) xoxo
