βGratitude is at the center of a life of faith. It sounds too simple to be true, but isnβt that the sign of all deep truth: so simple weβre tempted to dismiss it, and so hard,
it is exactly what God uses to change our hard lives.β
~ Ann Voskamp
Comrades! November is gracing our calendars and 2022 is edging toward its final countdown. I love November and the reminder it is to me to count gratitude.
We still have some lovely yellow color blazing on trees. Autumnal glory, splendor, and beauty always find their way onto my gratitude list.
I have a giveaway to begin our November.
A beautiful study set ~ to gift YOU or for you to gift to someone you love.
It includes a lovely Bible, Waymaker Book, and Waymaker study.
Three things I’m grateful for today are ~
an already emptied dishwasher, podcasts to listen to, marigolds in bottles on the piano top.
We continue to earnestly long and hope for rain. We’re gathering in the few dryland fall crops that are worth harvesting. It’s been a discouraging summer and fall. YET. We still can always, always find gratitude. Even if there are days when the gratitude is found in knowing our Waymaker hears us in the midst of our disappointment.
It’s been the usual fall mix of cool and hot. As I ferry the farmer around from field to farm when needed, I find myself changing the temperature gauge in the pickup from red to blue and tapping the a/c button depending on the time of day. π
Enter the giveaway! May your November be filled with unexpected delight!
I’m praying for rain with you! XOXO
Thank you so much Brandi! And hooray, it rained a half inch so far this morning!
I’m grateful for cooler weather, our local fall festivals, a new advent devotional I’m anxious to start!
So fun! I love advent devotionals. I have Emmanuel by Ruth Chou Simons to start this year.
Iβm grateful for a recent wonderful trip visiting my son, daughter in love and precious granddaughter!! Iβm grateful for my hardworking husband. Most of all I am grateful for Jesus!!
I am praying for rain for yβall also!!!!
I adore your list! Thank you for your prayers. Hallelujah ~ we’ve had a half inch of rain so far this morning!
I’m grateful for my healthy family, my concert band beginning to rehearse Christmas music for our December concerts, and for my opportunity to exercise with friends again.
What a lovely list! It would be fun to hear your band. I love Christmas music.
I am grateful for ….. visits from my children (though they aren’t far away it seems we see them seldom), pleasant weather with the hope of rain, the anticipation of a weekend of communion and fellowship
Oh, so lovely! Anticipation of good things is so delightful.
I am grateful that God provides for me and my family. Jesus died on the cross, rose again and is sitting at the right hand of the Father. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.
Yes, yes, and yes! Hallelujah!
I’m grateful for my health, my friends, and my animals.
So absolutely lovely!
