“Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.”
~ John Milton

Linking with Multitudes on Mondays . . .
I stumbled on your blog this morning. I like the title of your blog :) Enjoyed my brief time here and "meeting" you. Blessings.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much . . . come any time.
DeleteI came knowing I would be blessed and I go away rejoicing in the simple art of 'Gratitude'... blessings to you dear friend. This has been a big hug to me this morning! Enough to pass around!
ReplyDeleteYour gratitude list with photos has its own wonderful stories to tell...
I know the video and was so encouraged to see it again...so very blessed.
Yes, that video is so inspiring. Thanks for your always encouraging words. Have another hug.
DeleteDear Andrea Dawn,
ReplyDeleteI'm off to work in the free medical clinic today, but I saw you had posted last night so I took a quick peek to get the high praises going and to thank the Lord for those He will care for today through the wonderful staff at St Anthony's Center. This includes yours truly who needs to do a bit of nursing for it is what I am called to do.
I will save the video for this evening's quiet time!
Rejoicing,
Dawn
Dawn... a high calling this what you are called to do... blessings and hugs
DeleteSo important to do what we were made to do . . . hope your stint at St. Anthony's was satisfying to you . . . I know it was a blessing to those you reached out to.
DeleteLove that old photo - I hope your son enjoys Costa Rica...I hear it's beautiful!
