Thankful Thursday

Imagine living each day with a sense of awe and wonder. Imagine waking up, being excited and ready to be surprised by the many gifts God has prepared for you. Imagine God saying to you each morning "I have a gift for you and can't wait for you to see it!" Imagine!                                                                       (Henri Nouwen)

As I went for my walks this week, intentionally looking for little surprises to photograph, I was amazed at what I saw. So many special, often simple things that caught my eye. Things that I would normally have not paid any attention to but this week gave me joy. I have to admit I did take more than one photo a day. Too many wonderful things to enjoy.

​Today I am thankful to God for: a scavenger hunt in the bush with friends, views out over the Downs, sunlight spider webs, spikey red cactus fruit, baby Tommy coming home from hospital, wet weather gear on the bike, dodging showers on our ride to the Bunyas, exploring the Queens Park playground, tea and cake.

Thankful Thursday: As we enter into this Lenten season, a period of 40 days before Easter starting yesterday with Ash Wednesday, it is traditionally a time of reflection and preparation as we follow the course of Jesus' journey to the cross.

I always enjoy my early morning walk. It is part of my morning routine. It helps me to get ready for the day but it is also a time to spend with God, just noticing little gifts he has for me. Usually I go the same way but sometimes I enjoy going a different path. This lent, as I walk, I am going to take a series of 40 photos to help me focus, pay attention and reflect on the gifts that God has for me in that moment.

​Today I am thankful to God for: words of inspiration, sharing stories, invitations for collaboration, picking beans and eating them fresh, a video of a gorgeous baby opening his eyes, photo updates, playing chasey, lychees and homegrown eggplant shared.
