Text: Revelation 7:12
As we wrap up this time of thanksgiving to the Lord by reflecting on Psalms of Gratitude from His Word, let’s spend today meditating on this powerful verse from the book of Revelation.
May our prayers of thanks to God bring Him blessing and glory and honor forever and ever. Amen.
Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom
and thanksgiving and honor
and power and strength
be to our God forever and ever. Amen.
-Revelation 7:12
Thank you for the prayers, KIMBERLY Z, CEE GEE, and KATIE L! ❤️
RHONDA J: I left a (late) reply to your question about our business on a previous day (I think it was Day 11?) so sorry for the delay, I knew it would be a more detailed answer so I didn’t respond right away and then I forgot!
❤️❤️ HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY to all the mothers out there, and to those who are unofficial moms in some capacity ❤️❤️
@Lehua K. Praying for your conversation with your dad whenever that will be. I pray it’s a weight off his shoulders as much as it will be yours.
Oh, LEHUA K, that is so unsettling for sure. I will be praying that God will guide and give you the words for this necessary conversation and for a good and timely response from your parents. Hugs for your heart!
Praying for your conversation with your parents, Lehua! That the Lord will make the timing and wording perfect and that your parents will feel honored through it. Sometimes for our parents it can be helpful to frame things in how it will help YOU/others instead of THEM. I’ve found sometimes they’re more resistant to “needing help” but are more willing to help others ❤️
I hope you all have a blessed Mother’s Day weekend! ❤️ Praying for everyone that we can all enter this weekend restful and hopeful for the days ahead. Glad to hear some answered prayers and praying for those who are still waiting ❤️❤️
I stayed home and worked remotely yesterday because my allergies turned into a slight sinus infection. Thankful I separated myself from work physically, because all our files on the server got deleted somehow the night before and I was a nervous wreck, until I found out we have scheduled backups. Training someone remotely was a little tricky but God is so good, it all worked out.
Ladies, could you please pray for my parents? I’m nervous about a conversation I need to have with my dad about estate planning and preparing for the future. My mom told me the house is only under his name, and they don’t have a will or trust in place. On top of that, they’re on another island and he’s been getting increasingly more forgetful lately. They’ve had discussions about it but he keeps putting it off, and they’re in their 70s. I’m worried about many things about this, and am praying for courage to talk to him and that he will listen and understand the urgency behind it.

Oh I am so glad to read all these answers to prayer! God is good! I love it when you ladies post song recommendations, oftentimes it reminds me of a song I haven’t heard in years and renews my heart of worship!
A very happy Mother’s Day to you She’s – holding those in my heart who are struggling with this day. Whether you lost a mom physically or emotionally, desperately wishing to be a mom, or just overwhelmed and burnt out – may Jesus wrap around you like a big hug. Love you all!
HEIDI – Thanks again for pulling us together here! The study and sharing has been such a blessing. Continued prayers as you finish the late work (praying that option was granted). Prayers for Kin, too.
MICHELLE – so glad you had a good sleep!
SEARCHING – you’re welcome! I was laughingly thinking like you (Heidi’s term) and was reminded earlier in the week of how I prayed my boys through similar days! So glad your friend is on the mend and pray your neighbors are ok.
SHARON, JERSEY GIRL – Thankful Emily is doing better!
RHONDA J – Continued prayers for relief from that back pain and prayers for your niece and nephew and the family and friends of the young man who passed.
Lifting each of you in prayer!
Ready for REST! Could not resist sharing this song as it goes so well here today!
When the Stars Burn Down (Blessing and Honor)
Phillips, Craig & Dean
When the stars burn down, and the Earth wears out
And we stand before the throne
With the witnesses who have gone before
We will rise and all applaud
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
When the hands of time wind fully down
And the Earth is rolled up like a scroll
The trumpets will call, and the world will fall
To its knees as we go home
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Star of the morning, Light of salvation
Majesty
God of all mysteries, Lord of the universe
Righteous King
Star of the morning, Light of salvation
Majesty
God of all mysteries, Lord of the universe
Righteous King
There will come a day standing face to face
In a moment, we will be like Him
He will wipe our eyes dry, and take us up to His side
And forever, we will be His
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God
Singing blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to, ever to our God
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)
