gratitude



gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. it turns what we have into enough, and more. it turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. it can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.

my posts this month are going to be dedicated to all the {big & little} things i'm grateful for.

i've truly learned {this past year} that acknowledging the lord's hand in my life is my secret-angie-key to achieving peace & contentment.

i'm looking forward to sharing a month full of thanksgiving!

Love it! I am so into the gratitude mood! So I made a fun little sign and put butcher paper up on the wall. It's going to be our "Attitude of Gratitude" wall! We are going to jot down things we are grateful for the entire month of November.
