I recently read the book One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp. I know that a lot of you bloggers out there have read it. And many of you have started chronicling your own list of 1,000 gifts. I've struggled with keeping my mind stayed on Jesus and his blessings over my life. I am a habitual worrier and negative thinker. I've had some victory in this area recently with the help and patience of a very good friend and mentor as well as my amazing counselor. In order to work on what is going in my mind and what I am thinking on each day, I've decided to begin counting my blessings. So, here is the beginning of my own 1,000 gifts.

1. Zoe, who sits right next to me on the couch no matter what I am doing. Typing on my blog, reading a book, working on my bible study, or just catching a show.
2. The sound of the breeze blowing through the trees and the tinkling of my wooden windchimes.
3. Sunday mornings at Big Valley Grace.
4. Neighbors who have taken me under their wing and into their hearts.
5. Watching a friend who I love and respect so much worship her Lord, worship my Lord, worship our Lord.
