1,000 Gifts

The idea of the One Thousand Gift List began with Amy over at Holy Experience. Head on over and read her original post.

We're busy. We rush through our lives, with our lists of things to do and things to buy. Our eyes and thoughts scan God's blessings, at best: the beautiful views, the happy moments, the healthy days.

I don't want to be rushed. I want my eyes to be open, to see all the gifts that I have been giving in my life. So, this is my list of One Thousand Gifts.

Please read my original post here.
