What Lies Ahead

Looking Forward
Posting for the 30 days of gratitude has come to its cessation. I have spent the last month expressing thoughts and photos of things that I am thankful for. I pray my gratitude does not end here. I pray I continue to constantly be aware of how I am so blessed each and every day of my life. I look forward with anticipation and much gratitude…forward to a special birthday celebration we call Christmas; and forward to a brand new year. I also look back and try to count my many many blessings, as if it were possible. I am so thankful for each day and all that they have brought to me, whatever reason, good and bad. God is in control and He knows best!

The past, the present, the future!

I also count each of you that have read my somewhat insignificant writings, when I am counting all those blessings. Thanks for hanging with me, visiting, sharing and leaving all the sweet comments.

From the past to the present and forward we go…together. We cannot go forward without leaving the past; but we should never forget the journey that got us to the present...the present which leads our next steps into the future.  Come walk with me!

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, God Bless, Sweet Dreams and Jingle all the Way!

30/30 Today I am grateful for what lies ahead and what has been.


My word for 2010~Experience

I have been so out of the loop this last month with getting ready to move and stuff that I've missed most of your posts about this.
I'm pretty sure your gratitude won't stop here though.
Have a fabulous day my friend.
Big Hugs,
Kim

I so enjoyed reading your posts for November Cora. It helped me to remember things that I am grateful for and have not thought about recently.
Love the new header, it's very festive! I hope December continues to add many blessings to your life.

We know we are blessed but when we actually write those blessings out, it is a beautiful reminder of just how much! Sometimes, well lots of times... I'm in awe of how much God gives me, including the little things (like all green lights!).

Another beautiful post Cora, thanks for sharing!
