Big Thanks for Blessings
Updated: Oct 3
Learning, Living, and Sharing the Word
What truly excites me is learning new things. But even more thrilling is the opportunity to share them with other women, so we can grow together on our own paths in life.
My best and most important Teacher & Friend is Jesus Christ. I belong to Him with all my heart. I meet His presence in everyday life, and His WORD equals LIFE to me.
And perhaps that is why I keep coming back to Scripture with curiosity, gratitude, and the feeling that there is always something more to discover. Sometimes it is a word I have read many times before that suddenly speaks differently. Sometimes it is a truth I thought I understood, only to find that God is inviting me to live it a little more deeply.
This is what I love about the Word: it does not stay on the page. It finds its way into life.
Big Thanks for the Blessings 💮🤍💮
Growing in the faith is a constant journey, and the WORD of GOD is both a Light and a Way. We need community to encourage and uplift one another.
That’s why I started this blog. I want to create a community of women who live by God’s Word and are courageous enough to share their talents and life experiences - gifts that can bless us all. I want us to inspire one another, especially those who long for a life rooted in love for Scripture.
It is vital to trust God and begin each day with new hope. I learn that from Saint Faustina. Being grateful for God’s blessings is a joy that "cannot be hidden under a bowl." We are all called by Jesus “to go and teach all nations.”
Thank you for taking a moment to stop and read whatever inspires my heart. I have many passions: decorating, crafting, nature, and creativity in every form. But as much as I love whatever I’m doing at any given time, none of these things define me.
The Blessing of Sharing
💮🤍💮Alicja Lenczewska
"True blessings are not found in what we hold, but in what we give freely to others from a heart filled with love."
I think one of the most beautiful things God’s Word has taught me is to become grateful before I have all the answers. Saint Paul says (Philippians 4:6)
“In every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God”.
I love that little “with thanksgiving.” I can come to God with what I need, but I can also thank Him while I am still waiting, while the prayer is still unfinished, while I cannot yet see how things will unfold.
Somehow, gratitude makes the heart lighter. It carries joy into ordinary moments and teaches me to notice what is already here instead of living only for what I am still waiting to receive. Sometimes I simply look around my kitchen, at my coffee, the light coming through the window, a message from someone I love, and I think, Lord, You have already given me so much. And joy begins there as well - fear disappears and abundance appears.
As I walk in faith, I can share my blessings through acts of kindness, listening to others, and offering prayers. I can also share the joy I experience in knowing Christ’s love by encouraging others and being a source of support when they are struggling.
Today, I will offer a kind word to someone who is in need of encouragement and share a verse that has comforted me. Today it is you. I send you big thanks as a blessing of gratitude for stopping and listening to my story, and I invite you to walk with the Living Word.
I can receive God’s Word by taking a moment each morning to pray and open my heart to His teachings. Today, I will reflect on a Bible verse and allow it to guide my thoughts and actions. I’ll practice humility by acknowledging that God’s Word is not only a source of wisdom but also a guide to help me live with purpose and love.
Journaling Reflection💮🤍💮
Come, Holy Spirit. Enlighten my heart...
When I look back, I can see little traces of Your Word in me.
Thank You, Abba - Father, for the moments when I would once have reacted quickly, but now I pause and see myself and the other person through Your eyes. For the times when frustration could have taken over, yet somehow there is a little more patience, a little more tenderness.
And even for the moments when I still get it wrong, thank You - for they, too, can become places where Your grace meets me.
Your Word has been quietly working in me.
“Love your neighbor as yourself”
(Mark 12:31) sounds so simple until I meet someone difficult to love or until I am the one who is tired, irritated, or simply having a day.
And yet, something in me is changing. I find myself wanting to understand before judging, to soften before speaking, to choose kindness when it would be easier to defend myself.
Thank You for these small changes, Lord. They are very easy to miss.
Your Word does not always transform me with a dramatic moment. Sometimes it works more like rain soaking slowly into the soil - almost unnoticed, until one day I realize that something in me has begun to grow.
As Alicja Lenczewska writes:
💮🤍💮“The Word of God is not just spoken; it is lived in our hearts, transforming us from the inside out.”
Thank You for letting Your Word become life in me. And thank You for every little sign that it already is.
Closing Prayer💮🤍💮
While I write, I pray for blessings upon you, too.
Please open your heart and mind, and receive GOD'S WORD, quoted in this blog. Let's give Him, our Abba Father, big thanks for all He does for us. James 1,21
“Receive with meekness the implanted WORD, which can save your souls.”
Pause, reflect, and give thanks for each little thing in your life.
Take a moment today to pause, look around, and thank God for the many things that bless your life. Let gratitude blossom in your heart. Don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments. Thanks. 💮🤍💮
💮🤍💮💮🤍💮
And before you go, let me, again, leave you with these words from Alicja Lenczewska:
💮🤍💮“In humility, we open our hearts to receive the light that leads us through life’s darkest paths.”
Maybe that is enough for today. Let's leave a little space in our hearts for God’s light and then live what it shows us - one small act of love at a time.🤍💮
I find something wonderfully freeing in that. Grand gestures are not required. Sometimes gratitude looks surprisingly ordinary: a kind word, a patient answer, a prayer whispered while making coffee, or choosing love when nobody will ever know.🤍💮
Perhaps this little way is more than enough for a day.🤍💮
Blessings & Hugs,
BE 💕🤍
