gratitude is probably one of my biggest, life changing practices of the last decade. it is absolutely key to my overall perspective and attitude. thanks Ann Voskamp! the necessary habit of counting my blessings draws me closer to God and His goodness and His daily graces when it's sometimes easy to get lost in the "less wonderful". go ahead, read between the lines. :) so in this season of thanksgiving i am once again taking stock of the amazing ways God's provisions carry me and sustain me. here's a few that rise to the top....
gorgeous fall colours painting the trees
mum pots in full bloom
warm summer-like weather in October
a table full of my kids playing a game of spoons
the luxury of so much food that it takes a whole evening and day to prepare a Thanksgiving feast
laughter and togetherness
a rock-star husband who supports and carries so much of the load
fall candles lit
new beginnings
small connections and baby steps
friends who stay the course
silver linings
...and these just roll off my fingertips. i could go on and on. so much good. thankful for much and happy to have another season to reflect on the blessings.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families too!
