“Tell to the generation to come
the praises of the LORD,
and His strength
and His wondrous works that He has done.”
~Psalm 78:4b, NKJV~
Thankfulness: Day 20 – Today, I want to share how happy I am that God sees and plans the “big picture” of our lives. My newest example is that Boyd and Jennie, who were living in Prague, were offered a job for one year in the States. God had it all arranged, even though those who do this special assignment are usually older and more experienced. Since that time, Boyd’s dad was diagnosed with a brain tumor and passed away. Being stateside made it much easier for the family to have some quality time with his family. Now, Mallory has been burned and is being treated in one of the best burn centers. It doesn’t just happen by accident that they are living only 20 miles from one of the best burn units in the country! God is so good. He sees the “big picture” and plans our lives in accordance to what is best for us!
Those who need our continue special prayers:
