But, this counting my graces, it keeps me in the now. I may not know what is up or what is down, but I do know what is infront of me. I can't scream loud enough how much this naming my gifts is changing me. Although, I have a hundred and one things I am doing and then a million that still need to be done, through this counting... my daily life is slowing down.
I don't know how it works, but I do know that IT DOES WORK! I seriously am the busiest I probably have ever been, yet my heart is calm. My eyes are open. My ears are listening.
For anything, for everything.
I praise God for Ann Voskamp, her wisdom is reaching so many. I don't know her, I have never met her... but she speaks to me daily. She is a sister to me, quietly reminding me to count, to never stop looking for HIM in all things.
