In reply to Mrs L. So far I am loving the focus on being grateful for tiny things. I remember a verse in the Bible (can't remember the reference right now) that talks about giving "the sacrifice of praise." This is what Ann's book is saying to me: how to live a life of praise. There is so much fullness in that concept.

In reply to Luci. :) I'll be looking forward to hearing more about that.

In reply to Teckla Buller. I love that...the different backgrounds, but same in heart.

I enjoy your posts and your perspective.
I too, have not read Ann Voskamp’s book, but have heard some share that caution should be used. Since reading is not my first love (short articles are fine), then I might never get to this book. Wonder what you’ll have to say about it?

I washed feet yesterday too. :) And good going on the horseback riding. I finished your book with a satisfied sigh.

Luci, I really enjoyed this blog. Thank you for your comments on foot washing. I am not Mennonite, but it is something my church has always done. It’s a very special time. I’ve heard many sermons/sermonettes at foot washing, highlighting different aspects, but not sure I’ve ever heard so plainly about it demonstrating our purpose in being born to serve. That seems obvious, but I like being reminded. Sometimes we are so different, from such different backgrounds, yet so alike. Thank you for sharing your hear!
