TGIF: August 23, 2024

Isn’t Friday just a breath of fresh air?! Even if you have had a great week, I never wake up on Friday bummed that it’s Friday. 

I think it is about time for another TGIF Friday. These posts put the emphasis on thanking GOD! 

Today I am going to share a few things that I am thanking God for on this Friday in August.

Let’s dive in…

NEW MUSIC!

Brandon Lake (one of our fave Christian artists) came out with a new single called, “That’s Who I Praise.” It is INCREDIBLE! You have to put it on your playlist and memorize the lyrics.

FISHING!

My boys love fishing, but I think they like spending time with their cousin, Ty, while fishing even more. I am so thankful for something simple like fishing to bring my boys and my nephew together for quality time. No screens, just waiting around for fish to bite, talking about life and enjoying time together. I also love that Ty always takes a picture of every caught fish and sends it to the whole family. Enjoy a few pictures.

TEACHERS!

I am always thankful for teachers, but as this new school year starts let’s all take it up a notch in the thankful department. I have been taking time to pray for every individual teacher my children have. I am also thanking teachers in my prayers that I say aloud to my kids every single night. Being a teacher is not easy, it is exhausting, it is often very selfless and thankless, and I want teachers to know that the Miller family appreciates them, values them, and is supporting them at home!

CHANGE OF SEASONS!

I love summer- so much! But I am ready for a change of season. I love how God created the seasons here in Kansas. I feel like right when I need a little change of pace- God lifts my spirits with a change of season. Fall is so beautiful, for so many reasons. I am eager for the next season and where God takes us.

NEIGHBOR FRIENDS!

God knew what he was doing when He led us to our cul de sac. Every family in our cul de sac is so kind, generous, fun, and relaxed. We have loved playing outside with all our neighbor friends. I am so thankful for great neighbors that look after my kids and welcome them to their home. Such a blessing!

OLYMPIC ROLE MODELS!

I just want to take a minute to thank God for the incredible Olympic athletes that not only represented their country with class, but chose to take the biggest moment in their athletic careers to praise God. I was overwhelmed in the greatest way as athlete after athlete praised the Lord after winning a medal. The Olympic Opening Ceremonies basically flipped God off, but God still used the Olympics to share the gospel through amazing athletes. WOW!

FALL BLOG PLANNING!

I have so many fun fall blog posts that I can’t wait to write and share with y’all! I am so thankful so many of you keep coming back day after day to check out my blog. I pray with every click of the publish button that his blog can bring joy, inspiration, community, and praise into your lives. 

That’s a wrap for this TGIF blog post. What are you thanking God for in your life? Don’t forget where your blessings come from!

Love y’all.
