  1. I love the way you think!!
    Hmm...this day is a Gift in itself...
    I have the gift of family and their help.
    Just using this computer to communicate is a gift of learning from my son.
    Starting my day with my devotions and bible readings...it was all about Trust and not being afraid for "I Am Your Strength and Song.
    I am so thankful for God being my strength.

  3. This is amazing, Sandi. I was just this morning, sitting in our living room and looking around at the different things in the room and recounting why each one was special to me. We are so blessed!

  6. What a beautifully melancholy song. I have heard it is very hard to learn to play the harp. The pitcher is gorgeous!

  8. Hmm. Thought provoking post.
    I wake up every morning thanking God for the gift of a new day, and I keep a gratitude journal, but I haven't actually considered the perspective of how much of my day is made up of gifts of others.
    Love the pitcher. Very beautiful and unusual.

  9. Oh, what a lovely post. Yes, I am blessed with so many "things" as gifts from others too. I often stop and marvel and the kindness and generosity and talents of others throughout the years, and I thank the Lord for them. Thank you for this reminder to be thankful for everything. And yes, the sunshine by God Himself, given for us to warm ourselves and enjoy the light. We are so blessed to be His children! Have a lovely week.

  20. Hi Sandi, this is a lovely post, including the music. I see blogs of many people as gifts of others, including yours. I may not be able to look at each one every day, but they are part and parcel of what I consider to be 'gifts' God bless you .
