  1. Love the new picture, friend!
    And this:
    Gratitude precedes the miracle...
    Did you come up with that?

    Cause, wow.

    Don't feel grateful much.
    Obediently writing my list, but mostly feel overwhelmed. Over. Whelmed.
    And not seeing miracles, either. Just more needs, more inadequacies.

    So I need to focus on what you left me with: Gratitude precedes the miracle.

    O God, make me grateful, that I might know Your grace.

    "Gratitude precedes the miracle..." is from Ann's book. I guess I should credit her, huh? I love that and think it's true. I think that the gratitude allows us to see the miracle. Sometimes when it's there we are too caught up or overwhelmed to see the miracle when it's right in front of us but if we can stop and be thankful in the moment THEN we can see the miracles that are in our lives every day. I love you friend.
