Day 2: I am thankful for:
~Bibles
~Bookshelf
~Books
~Bed
~Babies
~Bibles- I am so thankful for God's Word. God's Word has brought so much comfort, peace, joy, wisdom, and understanding to me. Over the years, I have been gifted with 7 Bibles over the course of my life. Each one has a special story behind it. I'm still looking for a study Bible to use for my devotions as my favorite one is in pieces! This pink and brown one from Scott is the one I use for church. We went to a marriage conference that Dr. Gary Chapman was hosting and he signed my Bible, pretty cool!
|
My favorite Bible was falling apart so Scott bought me a new one. |
|
I taught at Immanuel Christian School for two years and was given this Bible as a going away present . |
|
After graduating from CBI, I was given this Bible from Calvary Baptist Chruch |
|
I worked at Camp CoBeAc as an intern before teaching at ICS and started attending a new church and met a very sweet friend and her family! So thankful for you, Ruth! It was so nice to see you this year! |
|
I was attending Bible college and I had been using a very small Bible because that's all I had. I was thankful for it too! One day this sweet family came in and told me they wanted me to pick out a study Bible from the gift shop. What a huge blessing that was! This has been my favorite study Bible! I still haven't been able to find another one and this one has had plenty of use and is falling apart! Thank you friends!

After graduating High School I got this NT from my home church |
|
I was in need of a new Bible and was gifted this from a family from my home church. |
|
In need of a Bible? We have plenty! |
~Bookshelf- I am thankful for this bookshelf. We had all of our books stored in totes. We went to Ikea last year and found this awesome book shelf!
|
We have an addiction with books! We both love to read. |
~Books-I love to read, I didn't always enjoy reading. However, over the last few years my love for books has grown. The past few years I have been setting some reading goals. This year my goal is to read 50 books, I might not make it but that's okay. I've met 72% of my goal so far. I have read some books on marriage, miscarriage, and personal growth. I have really enjoyed learning this year.
|
I made a goal to read 50 books this year. I have read 36 so far and these are the latest ones that I have finished. |
|
I am also currently reading a few books too. |
~Bed-I'm so thankful for our bed! When we first moved into our house we didn't have a bed. We slept on an air mattress for the first year. We wanted to be able to save up for a bed set and not go into debt. We saved up and were able to get the bed we wanted.
|
We had a raised queen size airbed. It was actually very comfortable. The previous owners left these two nightstands behind, so that was a blessing. |
|
One year later we were able to get a bed, nightstands, and a bed set. It 's worth waiting and saving up for the furniture you want/need. |
~Babies-I'm thankful for the two babies that God had blessed us with-Baby Nutter and Baby Peace. I can't wait for our reunion in Heaven! I may not look like a mom to the world because my little ones aren't here on the earth.
|
Baby Nutter would have been 3 this year. |
|
The 1st anniversary of the passing of Baby Peace is coming up next month on Christmas Day. |
