journey of eucharisteo // week three

"When I give thanks for the seemingly microscopic, 

I make a place for God to grow within me. 

This makes me full, and I "magnify Him 

with Thanksgiving"(Psalm 69:30)".

[One Thousand Gifts, Ann Voscamp, p. 59]

This week has been really busy and it was a challenge to keep writing in my thanksgiving journal since it was a chore just to keep my eyes pried open at the end of the evening. But here are a few of the things I am thankful for this week:

87. Late dinner with one of my best friends. It was so fun to catch up.

89. My mom surprised me with a sweet Thanksgiving card

91. Books that teach me about Jesus and biographies about missionaries.

92. Goofy kids in clinic

94. Seeing kids and teens excited to participate in Operation Christmas Child.

96. Peace amidst the storm, which was a great reminder from She Reads Truth  

97. My monthly massage. My massage therapist is the sweetest & its always fun to catch up every month.

101. A clean apartment and the smell of clean laundry

"I think we delight to praise what we enjoy because 

the praise not merely expresses but completes the enjoyment; 

it is its appointed consummation"

[C.S. Lewis]
