Easter Blessings

Hello mamas! Hooray for Spring! I hope you have had the chance to enjoy some of the sunshine we have had, as well as some time to rest and relax over Spring Break. Most importantly, I am thankful to have celebrated Easter last Sunday, and I hope the joy of that morning fills all of us with extra hope, faith, and love in the days to come.
In the weeks leading up to Easter, some of us participated in the "1000 Gifts" book study class at Northcreek. I sure enjoyed learning the art of gratitude and being thankful for the many many small blessings God pours into our lives each and every day. If you really stop to count---it is incredible! Just now I can look at the photo of those tulips and appreciate the beauty of the colors, the shapes of the petals, and also how they pop against the beautiful seagreen painted fence. :) (Not to mention how we were created to be able to SEE such brilliant colors).
The author of the book, Ann Voskanp, says: "As long as thanks is possible, then joy is always possible." If you haven't tried it, I encourage you to write a small (or large!) list of gifts you are thankful for--and I pray this process deepens your faith, and brings you closer to our loving, almighty God.
