As my pastor preached yesterday about worship and how true worship comes from gratitude,
I smiled wide and wrote…
“gratitude listing = worship.”
Join me in worship…
Thank you Heavenly Father for…
967. “I like puddles.” she says from her perch in the aft of the van…
968. “know what’s the best thing about puddles is that they splash.”
969. early morning drive down Basin Run Road
970. gold leaves, red leaves, orange leaves
971. playgrounds
972. brilliant yelllow, deep purple, and brick red mums, huddled around steps and tree trunks, thumbing their noses at the drabness of the coming gray of winter
973. bright blue sky peeking from behind ominous looking dark gray clouds
974. quiet house…
975. … fire… snapping… crackling… popping… and sizzling
976. … started by my love, before he heads off to work
977. peaceful melodies of David Nevue infusing a spirit of rest and calm into body, mind, and home
978. silky blond hair softly brushing my cheek
979. …as she climbs into my lap…
980. …”good morning mommy” whispered quiet
981. he tells me to wait until morning light before I begin to drive homeward
982. clear dry roads
983. the unexpected snow
984. trees aflame with color, standing tall in fields, looking shocked, with snow plastering one side, as if a whipped cream pie had been thrown in their face
985. sunny yellow leaves fallen atop frozen crystals of snow
986. hoarfrost this very morning…
987. and now “seven”…

I simply love this post- gratitude listing= worship. I just love that I am worshiping with so many when I type out/write out grace. I stumbled over from Ann and so greatly enjoyed your words, photos and list!
Thanks for sharing your list and the beautiful pictures.
Jumped over from Ann’s 1000 gifts
Sounds like your new church home is just what the
(Great Physician) ordered….Ahhhh worship in so many ways!
Also Happy Birthday Mr Jack!!!!!!
The list and pictures are beautiful.
Wow! You’re almost home to 1,000 gifts. The snow pictures are amazing (even if unexpected)
