Multitude Monday

Ann Voskamp at Holy Experience issued a challenge to find 1000 gifts in your life . . . not the gifts you want, but the gifts you already have.  A list of all the things that God has given you and that you have to be grateful for.   I decided to start my own list last week.   I want to begin looking for God's loving hand in every aspect of my life.   So, here is the start of my 1000 gifts.

1.  A hard day's work, ending in a freezer full of food.
2. The sun.
3. A family that plays and laughs together
4. A flower strewn bath drawn with love.

5. DeBrands Chocolate Truffles
6. A loving husband who pampers me with the above.
7. A quiet morning alone.
8. Sounds of birds singing
9. Precious times sharing love with a daughter.
10. The silly antics of one year olds.

11. The occasional good night's sleep.
12. A fun outing of miniature golf with my family.

13. Gorgeous, warm spring weather.
14. Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
15. A beautiful message at our Easter services.
16. A nice family dinner (china and all).
17. Watching my girls love on their Papa.
