Recently I came across Ann Voskamp's blog, "
A Holy Experience." She is a truly beautiful writer with an even more beautiful heart for God.
Each Monday she challenges readers to count their overflowing, endless
blessings. I want to count along with her and am excited to start today at number 1.
Counting my endless blessings
1. my husband and every single thing about him2. new friends3. taking a leap and seeing a commitment through4. warm fall days5. a snuggly scarf6. taking (having) time to breathe7. Proverbs 3:58. Jesus who helps (holds) me up9. November and being that much closer to family10. a new beginning tomorrow
"And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are all called to live in peace. And always be thankful." Colossians 3:15
