Clear November : 1000 Gifts


Wrapped up in His grace, my list of gifts continues...

0141
A slower season.

0142
Wrapped in blankets.

0143
Space heaters and books.


0144
Our dinner club. Many years of friendship around a table.

0145
Slow food.


0146
Lunch dates. Pizza you have to fold.


0147
When we can walk instead of drive.


0148
The brightness that comes when the last leaves fall.


0149
Quiet trees showing their beautiful frame.


0150
He crowns me with steadfast love. Psalm 103.
"...and the crown must be far more precious than if it were made of corruptible things, such as silver and gold; it is studded with gems of grace and lined with the velvet of lovingkindness; it is decked with the jewels of mercy, but made soft for the head to wear by a lining of tenderness." - C.H. Spurgeon

0151
And mercy. New every morning.


holy experience
