Dear Lord; Happy Thankful Thursday Father!
Well Lord, once again we come to the Thankful Thursday edition of PhatherPhil.org. My life has virtually overflowed with Your Blessings this past week, so compiling my list of gifts that I’m grateful for was a relatively easy process.
Continuing from the previous week’s list, today I’d like to give special thanks and praise to You for:
286. Having a wife with whom I’m comfortable sharing and discussing absolutely anything.
287. Having the Holy Spirit in my life to guide me in Your will.
288. Some wonderful photo opportunities coming up this weekend.
289. The repair I made to our central air conditioner working perfectly.
290. Revised priorities.
291. Understanding friends.
292. Free ROMs for both my phone and tablet from MIUI.us that make them a pleasure to use.
293. All the seasons in our marriage, and the Blessings they’ve brought us.
294. The laughter of my children.
295. The fellowship, friendship and encouragement I receive from my fellow Christian Bloggers.
296. The shift in weather brought on by moving from summer into fall, and the cooler air it brings.
297. Wonderful inspirations for Christmas crafts.
298. Halloween candy filling the store shelves. 🙂
299. The fellowship we receive from the “Parents Place” small group at church.
300. 300 shared “emails to God”.
(And 300 Thankful Thursday entries now too! 🙂 )
Heavenly Father,
We give thanks Lord, for all the Blessings You bring to our lives each and every day; both those that shout Your presence from the mountaintop, and those that grace us in a gentle whisper.
In Jesus’ Name we pray,
Amen.

Hi, I’m Phil Malmstrom, a.k.a. Phather Phil. I’m self-employed, father of two wonderful young men, an ordained minister who delights in spreading Jesus’ Message of Hope and Love, a science-fiction junkie, an aspiring photographer and above all that one of God’s Children who rejoices in His Blessings each day. 
Great list Phil and I love your autumn picture. 🙂
Thank you Jenifer!
Have a Blessed Day!
Great list Phil! And the picture would be absolutely perfect if you removed the brown candy corn. 😉
LOL… I’m not a big fan of the brown candy corn either Lisa, but they were in the photo. Thank you!
Have a Blessed Day!
#291 is truly a blessing! Love your list and that photo is gorgeous.
joy and blessings,
Alida
Thank you Alida! Wow… I wish I’d taken it then, but this a cropped stock photo I got through Mouguefile.com. 🙂
Have a Blessed Day!
#298 is a favorite here too! AHHHH candy corn!
Walking through the grocery store isles is dangerous this time of year, isn’t it?? 🙂
Have a Blessed Day!
Well, that is so cool that you arrived at 300 thankfuls today too! I love #286… truly that may be God’s greatest earthly blessing! Enjoy your evening Phil!
I find it fascinating that I hit 300 on both the same week Heidi… So many Blessings! 🙂
Thank you!
Have a Blessed Day!
Fall is surely one of my favorite seasons, I love the colors that birth forth…The crisp nights and the cool of the day…great days to be out in the park and have a picnic.
Mine as well Desiray! Love the cool, crisp weather and the lovely changes in the colors….
Have a Blessed Day!
Phil,
Love your list, 293 is my favorite, although I don’t have seasons of marriage, I have seasons of life, and even the seasons that are not so fun are still a blessing, and fall is my favorite time year.
ps. I love your autumn picture and the brown candy corn :).
Blessings to you Phil.
Thank you Kandi! We all go through these seasons of life, and you’re absolutely right; we’re Blessed through all of them, even when we can’t readily see them.
Have a Blessed Day!
