Winner for Book Giveaway- One Thousand Gifts!



We have a winner!  Wahoo!  

Delayed?  Yes,,,I have been a little distracted with the end of this pregnancy, and so, alas, drawing a name for the Book Giveaway slipped my mind!

Thank you to everyone that shared part of their Grateful Lists for this Giveaway...
This morning, I read, and re-read all of the wonderful Comments that everyone shared, and was blessed all over again.

After printing them and having my daughter draw a name for a WINNER..
I decided that in the Spirit of Celebration, and the soon- to - be birth of this little babe..
I would draw not just ONE..
But..
TWO winners.

And, so... the WINNERS are:

Elizabeth -

Thankful for:
Our faithful God!
5 beautiful children who embrace each moment fully!
One loving, talented, patient husband!
Strength to get through each day with new mercies each morning!
Sunshine

Bay.

I have a wonderful mother who has gone through miscarriages herself and been such an amazing example of strength and trust, not once have I ever heard her doubt God.

I have an amazing little brother who the doctors said would be blind and autistic, but is perfectly healthy by Gods grace.

I have my own life, even though my mom was told that there was no chance I'd survive and if she brought me to term she would be in great danger herself.

I have my spiritual life, my salvation from the Lord that I have done nothing to deserve!

I have the Holy Spirit living in me to help me live this life fully and to the glory of God the Father!



... and to make this giveaway even more special..
I am "throwing in," a moleskin notebook for your Grateful List!!
These are my favorite, and I am sure you will find them just as fabulous also!



Please contact me with your mailing addy's and I will get these right out to you!

ENTER my Book Giveaway - 1000 Gifts

  If you haven't read this new book, then read on...



I purchased extra's of Ann's book when I started reading it a month ago, and I knew it bless the heart of any one that reads it.

The author, Ann Voskamp, hails from Canada, and is one of the most profound writers, thinkers, and speakers I have ever met.
I was able to meet Ann last October, and after the release of her new book, am so thankful that God moves His people to write like she has, and share it.

Here is Ann's Blog site, if you have never stopped by there... be prepared.. to THINK, PONDER, and SIT quietly and feel strong conviction.  She uses only God's word and her own moving conviction to share her thoughts... NOT her opinions.
