#79 - Weekly Thankfulness & Growth Report

If you were following this blog in 2015 then you will be familiar with my "365 Days of Being Thankful" challenge.  I have missed reporting on my thankfulness since I finished my challenge 2 years ago, so I decided to at least give a weekly Thankfulness Report & include a Growth Report also.  Growth in our Christian walk, growth in the garden & growth on this blog.  Finally, I am also including a "Posts From the Past" feature - ENJOY!

This week I have been thankful for the beautiful state of Michigan.  I am thankful for daily garden produce.  I am most thankful that God is such a wonderful teacher and I enjoy learning more about Him everyday.

"With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness.  Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing.  My brothers, this should not be.  Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?  My brothers, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs?  Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water."  James 3:9-12
As we have seen recently in the news, what we say and how we say it can be the cause of either peace or violence.  I talk about the four "Ts" having to do with controlling our tongue (our speech) in the following post:

The nights are starting to get cooler and our daily garden produce intake is starting to slow.  Soon we will be raking the leaves and saving them for our compost potato patch for next year.
