Cliff and I are in our pastor’s Sunday school class at church (many may know this). Our pastor had to go out of town Sunday and he asked me to teach the lesson which I’ve done many times before since I am his substitute teacher. I studied the lesson on Philip and how he was so consistent with sharing the news of our Lord and did so wherever he went. The lesson was in Acts about how Philip was bold and able to share the word with an Ethiopian (a foreigner) and
how he cast out demons and performed miracles in God’s name. It was such a wonderful lesson. I had prayed that I would remember what I studied and the Lord helped me.
Today I am thankful for:
- remembering everything I studied for the Sunday school lesson
- my brother who has a birthday tomorrow
- the beautiful example of Philip
- our home…some people are homeless
- other bloggers and blog readers who visit me and leave nice comments
Cliff had to go to the ER Wednesday (tonight) for kidney stones (we think)…praying he will be okay

Hope Cliff is doing well today! I have had the stones and they are not fun! Great post – Happy TT!
Praying for Cliff to feel better.
Oh no, kidney stones? I’ve had those three times now and they are the WORST. They’re like the Spinal Tap amp that goes to eleven. Hope Cliff is feeling better soon.
Love the picture and the scripture! Oh my aunt just went for op on kidney stones too on Wed evening (yesterday). Praying for Cliff’s recovery.

I have a Super Commenter Award for you at my place!
Beautiful phote and verse on your blog!
And I’ll be praying for Cliff. I had a kidney stone–while I was pregnant, no less. No fun at all.

Great list of thanks! Love the picture.
I am praying for your husband …Kidney stones My husband had these several months ago…nothing is worse than a man in pain.
I will also pray for you …I know how it feels when your husband is in pain.
Have a fabulous week!
I would NEVER be brave enough to teach an adult Sunday school class…
Wonderful blessings you have shared… each one of them.
Happy Thankful Thursday!
I’m thankful for…YOU! Your posts always brighten my day.
Thank you R and P’s Mom!!
You have a lot of great things to be thankful for. I hope Cliff is okay. One time I went to the doctor and thought I was passing kidney stones. I don’t want to tell you that it was just a muscle spasm in my back. Drama drama drama.
That is probably my all time, most loved, well cherished, favorite, verses!
Everytime I read it I…. is another shout it!
Thanks for sharing!

Phillip is such a wonderful example of sharing the faith, especially because he relied on the Holy Spirit to give him the words to share. We need to do that more!
Thanks for sharing your blessings with us!
Hope you are having a good day and Cliff is alright today.
That verse is wonderful. I am praying for Cliff and may the appointment goes well. Advance happy birthday to your brother.
Gina, Love the photo with the scripture! Thanks for your post. I’m praying for Cliff.
Blessings, Janet
Oh dear I hope Cliff is okay and no kidney stones!
I so agree with you – Philip is a wonderful example how to share the faith with others…
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.
Blessings to you and your beloved.
Overcoming the world…such a small phrase with so much meaning. It is so great that God offers you the opportunity to study His word and share it with others. I am so glad I visited you, and so thankful you stopped by!
Congratulations on leading the lesson.
