simple. ordinary. blessings

My life is abundantly filled with simple ordinary blessings... insignicant... commonly encountered... grace. Blessings that easily go unnoticed if I don't purpose to look for them. 

This last summer, I was given the book One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voscamp.  This wonderful gift was just what I needed to be reminded of God's grace and mercy upon me.  How I need to look daily for His gifts.  I am inspired.  I am challenged.  I am encouraged. 

My motivation....a journal to remind me of how much I have to be thankful about.  And Lord willing, a blessing to others.
