The Gratitude Community
I happened upon this blog called Holy Experience. Her words are so inspiring! The way she writes about the love of God in such a simple way makes my heart cry and rejoice all at once.
One of the things she writes about is The Gratitude Community. It is about counting the blessings in your life. Every time I would read about her blessings I would feel that tugging in my heart to start counting the blessing in my life. I already know I am very blessed, but I think to write it down will make me really pay attention to how often God is whispering to me, ” I love you!”
With out further ado, here are my blessings.
