I am thankful for the smell of homemade bread and the fact that God created us with the ability to smell it!
ReplyDeleteOk, first, although thankful daily, a forgetful mama I remain! Today I am thankful for God's forgiveness. So undeserving but much needed :)
ReplyDeletePs-thought of you guys today bc we watched Captain America!
Hi Chelsea! I have been enjoying your blog..very cute, inspiring and encouraging! I am not surprised after meeting you last week that your blog matches your personality! I amd the other girls enjoyed hanging with you and getting some fun work done too! Glad that you and Trey are where God wants you and having fun serving Him together! My husband and i just got approved to serve in Haiti with Hope International Missions in 1-2 yrs and we are excited at what God has for us! I will be checking your blog frequently and keeping you in my prayers! Love from a Sister in Christ, Liz Flowers

Hi! Chelsea!
ReplyDeleteI am ashamed to admit that this is the fourth time I have written a comment in the last 2 months so I hope that this one goes through! I was so proud of myself when I sent you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY post early on November 17th thinking I had figured out how to send it corectly only to find out later( from your mom) that it did not go through! That's what I get for feeling proud!:) Chelsea, I want you to know that I am so thankful for YOU! Your love for the Lord and commitment to Jesus to reach the world with His love and saving grace are such an encouragement to me. I see so many answered prayers in and through your life! I am always praying for you and Trey and will definitely be remembering you in the month ahead as you spend Thanksgiving and Christmas in Haiti. I have been enjoying your blog. You are a very gifted writer! Love in Christ, Lisa
