About Me

My photo
I love expressing heart-felt and inspired words that come unseen at times, yet powerful and profound within.
Enlightenment, in between the lines.

As you will find, I truly believe in the divine power of Gratitude. And how, by that power, it can change lives.

This journey of blogging has been an adventure!
And I'm so glad you stopped by for a quick visit : )

~ The Gift ~

I try to ignore it, but I feel it coming ... something.
Change.
Something big. 
A test of Faith perhaps.
A life-moment of challenge.

And then the other day, I came across this amazing
life-changing quote that spoke deep within the fibers:

“When God moves us out of our comfort zone —-
 into places that are way bigger than us,
places that are difficult, hard, painful —- that even hurt —
this is a  gift. We are being given a gift.
These hard places give us the gift of
intimately knowing God in ways
that would never be possible in our comfort zones.”
- Ann Voskamp




... out of our comfort zone ...





I sense it coming ... you know - that feeling of unrest,
as if life itself is whispering
clues
... winds of change
to your spirit?

And the daily counting gratitude's - gifts,
I have been doing, I feel are preparing me for whatever moment it may be
to help keep me strong.
Grounded.
Keep the Faith.

Life is interesting indeed.
A mystery.
Yet, I know Who is holding me ...
my Faith.  Hope.
And because I know this,
- come what may -
out of my comfort zone ...
to blossom into what He created me to be,


He is always there.

And if my #1  gift  listed every day in my daily gratitude's is
Him
carrying me along ... step by step -
cocooned in the gift of "intimately knowing God in ways
that would never be possible in our comfort zones ... "

that surely will be
more
than enough.
