Saturday Thanks....

Seven Saturday Shouts of Joy:

1. Salvation: HUGE! I certainly do not deserve your GRACE and FORGIVENESS and yet, you extend daily. Father, THANK YOU! I pray that I can be a reflection of You. Help me be the Bride of Christ as you desire.....
2. Health: You have blessed me beyond measure with a healthy body.
3. Family: You have given me a wonderful father (who returned to You when I was a small girl but he touched my life tremendously), a step-father and mother, 2 sisters, 1 brother, 1 bro-in-law, 4 amazing nephews! Not to mention, a wonderful extended family and family in Christ.....WOW!
4. Friends: You have blessed me with friends beyond measure. Friends who uplift and encourage daily.
5. Career: You have given me a career I love. I love the babies and families, Father. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to see my daily miracles. I know I am such a tiny instrument in YOUR hands. Please continue to work through me each day.
6. Laughter: Thank you for laughter. Thank you for giving me JOY when I seek YOU.....
7. Peace: Summed up by the words in one of my favorite songs: "I will praise you in this storm. I will lift my hands. You are Who You Are, no matter where I am. Every tear I cry, you hold in Your Hands. You've NEVER left my side and though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm." Thank you, Jesus....I trust in You.....

Hi Jen,

My name is Meghan and I "stumbled" across your blog via another one. I went to school with Josh Buck although I really did not know him then... funny how the internet brings so many people full circle.

I too am a NICU nurse and that's what caught my eye on your post I guess. Just wanted to say "hi" and let you know I enjoyed browsing through your posts!
