How many of you lisped this sweet table grace as a I child? I did. Brings back precious memories. It kind of covered everything, don't you think? Might be a good way to pray today as well...who said praying had to be elaborate and full of deep theological words that only deep theologians understand? Keep it simple...get to the point...
Welcome to my "Open Window"...a place of hope, encouragement, and adventure as we journey down the road from "Closed Doors" to the new opportunities God places in our pathway. I hope you will take the time to go back and follow the trail of mixed blessings and fears, failures and triumphs from the past and side-trips in the present. Perhaps it will conjure up some of your own special memories, and be an invitation for you to share with others. I look forward to spending this time with you!
What Do You See Outside YOUR Open Window Today?

Grace

"Giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ..."
Ephesians 5:20
Gotta start somewhere...
Amen?

Oh,life is just a returning to the simple things over and over again, I believe! We make things so complicated and He never intended it...Love to you. Beautiful and perfect. Is it just me or have you done a spring cleaning here at your place?
ReplyDeleteNo spring cleaning here...just haven't been writing as much lately...been kind of busy and had a sinus/allergy thing going on so I haven't felt like thinking and writing at the same time. LOL. Yes, we need to learn to keep it simple...God already knows what is on our hearts and minds anyway...just bring it to Him and leave it there...He'll take care of the rest! Right? AMEN! (now, if I could just do that!) LOL.Thanks for stopping by. I'll have to go visit you next. :)
DeleteI learned this as a child and find God bringing it back to my mind often, especially when I get a little down. I am reminded to be thankful for all things and to be content. Since the birds have now started singing again, I repeat this over and over. I am truly thankful for God's grace and mercies!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about all of the above! today has been a super bird watching/listening day here. The windy weather has blown in some interesting birds. I thank the Lord for His beautiful world...and the ways that He blesses us on days that could otherwise be discouraging. Yes, so thankful. Amen.
DeleteAre you on facebook? I have some interesting spring pictures today.
Oh yes, this sweet prayer covers a lot. God has made a beautiful world and put us in it.
