3 Gifts Eaten


  1. Piece of Godiva chocolate
  2. Was a piece of pumpkin roll with cream cheese frosting
  3. Little Caesars pizza
I'm reading this book, 1000 Gifts by Ann Voskamp . It's about looking for ways God has blessed you every day and then personally thanking him for them.  I knew today was going to be focusing on 3 gifts eaten and after I read it, I promptly forgot it. :( Then we went to Costco later in the afternoon. I took a demo piece of chocolate (does anyone not take chocolate?) and as soon as I put it in my mouth I thought, "this is GREAT!" I heard a happy "that's one." I smiled.  And did say thank you because I don't purchase Godiva chocolates. Ever.

Then we had purchased Pumpkin rolls with frosting.  That night I cut myself a piece and I thought, "this looks SOO pretty!" My attention span seems to be short some days.... but when I took a bite, I was reminded that this was another blessing from God. I smiled again. :)

Then at the end of the day, I was wondering what the third edible blessing was. I thought of the wonderful, hot cup of coffee Craig brought to me this morning, and also thought of the Little Caesars pizza we ate after work.  Both were blessings.  

When I look for God, I discover how many good things he really has blessed me with. How good it is to see God in every aspect of your life.  I have so much to be thankful for. :). I hope you get encouraged to read the book.
