One year ago today I posted a picture and completed a year of visible gratitude. Being grateful is a habit I want to continue. Need to continue.
This year I have fallen in love with the work of Ann Voskamp. Her writings challenge me and inspire me in all areas of my life. Her writing style forces me to slow down and actually read the words. I am unable to gloss over her writings and move on. They force me to linger. To slow. To meditate. So in 2014, I am going to continue giving thanks by completing her Joy Dare - http://www.aholyexperience.com/joy-dares/.
Join me as I daily give gratitude for three gifts from God. Maybe start a list of your own!

Endings Are Just Beginnings...
Well, I did it - 366 days of pictures and posts. There were many days where I loved posting and many days where I wanted to forget about it! Regardless, it reminded me of the many things I have to be thankful for each day. So often as I would decide what to photograph, many things would cross my mind that I'm thankful for but could not take a picture of that moment or that day.
God is so good to us. As James says, "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." So true. He has truly blessed us this year with so many good gifts.
As 2012 (and this blog) came to an end, I'm looking forward to what 2013 has in store. It won't include a 365 project such as this, but it will include one main goal:
Striving to walk more closely with Jesus every day by choosing to spend time with Him above other things. You can pray for me in that regard this year!
Thanks to all of you who followed this project and encouraged me along the way. Special thanks to Ressie who initially inspired the project! Love to you all!
