One of my favorite women is Ann Voskamp! If you haven't heard of her, you have to visit her blog! She has an amazing gift with words and such a transparent and tender heart towards the Lord! The way she writes is so touching and thought-provoking and just stunning! She wrote a beautiful blog post this week on how to handle losses! These words really convicted me and reminded me to be thankful...always! She writes:
"Anything I have, I don’t deserve. Everything I have isn’t a given — it’s given. Nothing is a given — everything’s a gift. Who am I to complain in losses when what I lost wasn’t mine to begin with? You defeat your dark when thanksgiving is your default. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord — because praise is breath to a child of God. Praise is the only way to really breathe."
I'd encourage you to read the rest of her post at the link below!
