only a great fool would not be grateful!

Merry Christmas!!!

My heart is filled with gratitude to God for such a great year.
Two weeks ago, D and I went on a retreat. We took time out to pray and make plans for 2011. We reviewed our family vision, came up with a fresh one and set new goals. As I looked as those goals again today, it became clear to me that God is faithful. Most of my goals for 2010 were accomplished and it could only have been God.

The highest point of my year was giving birth to Alexis

I am so blessed, I can't thank God enough for His blessings. Especially the ones that money cannot buy.

As I look forward to 2011 and the many changes that the new year will bring, I am convinced that God will do even more.

If you have any doubts about what God has promised you, I encourage you to trust Him. He is faithful. If He could do it for me, He certainly can do it for you :)

Care to share what the highest point of your year was?

  1. Beautiful kids...you really are blessed. May the New year bring forth many more blessings however disguised and may we be given the wisdom to see them for what they are.
    Enjoy my dear.

    Amen! I find the term 'however disguised' instructive and I would keep that in mind. Thank you for coming by again.

    Thanks. I'm excited to learn you're sewing!! It's a lot of fun plus it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside when I see someone wearing something I made. I'll be glad to help if you have any questions. You can drop me a line gbemi@gbemisoke.com

  5. Hmmm, thanks for this! Eni to ba mo'nu ro, a dupe.

    I think my highest point for 2010 would be (1) My transfer back to Lagos in February (2) My finally result from school in April(3) The birth of Oluwatiishe in August. They're all signs that He's a miracle worker
