Day 531 - November 28 - Thanksgiving Week Day 7
The last day of our exercise, and "S" is the theme. I read something yesterday that gave me great hope and served as a reminder to me, and it's perfect for closing up this week's theme, so today, I'm thankful for "Spurgeon". As in Charles Spurgeon, the 19th-century preacher. I've been reading one of his devotionals, and yesterday's reading was exactly what I needed to hear.
So, I'm just going to copy it. Here it is, courtesy of Charles Spurgeon from "Daily Help" -
Success is certain when the Lord has promised it. Although you may have pleaded month after month without evidence of answer, it is not possible that the Lord should be deaf when his people are earnest in a matter which concerns His glory. Delayed answers often set the heart searching itself, and so lead to contrition and spiritual reformation. Reader, do not fall into the sin of unbelief, but continue in prayer and watching. Plead the precious blood with unceasing importunity, and it shall be with you according to your desire.
Amen and amen. Preach it, Chuck.

Amen! That is a great section, it is so true, pray and keep on praying! I will continue with you praying for Connor's healing and for his continued faith as well.
The word I chose for "S" is Savior, it is so important to remember what and Who we are living for. Jesus died to bring us close to God, we are now His children! (just sang an amazing song called "You made us Your own", talking about Jesus taking our sin on the cross and in exchange, we get the love of the Father...beautiful thought!)
I will be praying for your upcoming week, that your work, home life and your relationships would all be glory to God.
Your friend,
Valerie
