Most of you have probably heard of, or read the book One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp. It is such an encouraging book. It's more than just a book. It's a dare, "A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are" as it says on the front of the book. It's all about being thankful for the little things God has given to us, finding joy in this moment that God has blessed us with. It's about eucharisteo, it's about thanksgiving, grace, and joy all wrapped into one. The way she writes is vibrant! Her words are convicting, piercing, uplifting.
I have accepted her dare. I am logging one thousand gifts. I am a hunter of blessing.
1- Salvation
2- A hard working husband
3- Arrow Sage
4- Baby wearing
8- Goofy baby smiles
12- God's Provision
25- New journals to fill with thankfulness
26- The ability to express gratefulness and thanks
These are just a few, of the gifts I have sought. But my adventure of seeking the joy found in thankfulness continues.
