Daring to live fully alive!
Choosing to SEE!
Resting at the Pool of Siloam!
Digging out of the Pit- TO STAY!
In the picture and story of the Prodigal Son, we find ourselves as all 3 men.
These are some of the mantras from books I've read and am reading since Christmas.
Books that every woman should eventually have on her shelves are:
Choosing to See by Mary Beth Chapman
Get out of that Pit by Beth Moore
The Psalms of the Ascents Bible Study by Beth Moore
The Return of the Prodigal Son, a Meditation on Fathers, Brothers and Sons by Henri Nouwen
One Thousand Gifts: Dare to Live Fully Alive by Ann Voscamp
Here's my start on 1000 things:
1. Surprise Lunch dates for my children
2. Ringing phones with John on the other end
3. Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberries in February
4. Kids who finally 'get it' in school work.
5. Pumpkin Spice Candles
6. first coffee in the morning
7. cozy jammies
8. laughter at the dinner table
9. whipping, wild, wind
10. Red Cars- always make me smile!
11. Passover
12. fresh bread in the bread maker
13. grinding wheat, spelt, barley and lentils for bread as the Isrealites did
14. traveling buddies
That's my start! What ways has God shown you His FULLY ALIVE way He loves YOU?!

Kellie...I loved reading through your list! I just started Ann's book and have been following her blog for awhile. God is definitely using her to help others find thankfulness in the little things. Hoping you continue find many things to be thankful for.
