If you know me even a little bit, you will know that
I Love books.
One of the most powerful books I have read recently is
'One Thousand Gifts' by Ann Voskamp.
I'm sure I have mentioned it before but I keep sharing, because this book keeps impacting me and the way I see life.
My eyes have been opened to the way the world is a series of gifts from the Lord.
A way to see life in its entirety.
A secret to praying without ceasing.
You may have noticed my new banner at the bottom, the Joy Dare.
I have decided to take part in the February Joy Dare....
I am hoping to continue this habit and count 1000 gifts this year in 2012.
Along with thousands of others.
I would encourage you to check it out and join us!
Here's to enjoying every moment.
Much Love,
L
P.S. I am totally considered doing a linkup for one of my series on here. What do you guys think? Which would you enjoy? The {On My heart} series? Or 'Two Hearts In Love'?

I just started reading this book, I had been wanting it for awhile but didnt have the extra money for it and one day I actually found it at a thrift store for $1.40! Good deal! It's a great book and I'm doing the Joy dare on the app on my phone. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome Joanna =) I dont have my own copy of it yet as it is a little pricey, I'm hoping I can find it in a thrift store for that price =) I'm blessed to have a copy in the local library for now =)
DeleteI wish I had an iphone just for that application haha! I am just writing them down instead =)
Thanks for sharing! =)
What a great idea from what it sounds like...I may need to pick up this book soon!
ReplyDeleteI just finished this book a few weeks ago and it has literally changed my life. I love books like that! I have insisted that my husband read it too and, being the sweet man that he is, he is already a few chapters in :)
ReplyDeleteYay Lauren =) I totally agree this book was AH-mazing! =) How sweet, well I hope your husband likes it =)
DeleteLove her blog, her book, and this video! :)
ReplyDeleteOne Thousand Gifts is more than a book on gratitude. Within the lyrical prose and authentic imagery is a chronicle of grace and pain, joy and loss, a message torn from the pages of a real life, a life that battled anger and bitterness and despair and discovered transformation in the Eucharisteo life. It is a story that can inspire many more lives.
