count it all joy {155-185}

As I walk through a week of emotional ups and downs, highs and lows . . . I’m thankful to crawl into bed each night with my journal and count it all joy.

A habit of not complaining, but the habit of giving thanks;
the habit of not worrying, but a habit worshipping.
~ Ann Voskamp


155. studying the book of Ephesians with her and her
157. 31 Days of Faith in the hands of others
159. opportunity
163. valentine’s popcorn
165. finding out 31 Days of Faith would be used in a Sunday school class to encourage others
167. gift of His love
168. gift of His grace
169. gift of His presence
170. message of radical love
172. a teen who follows me through the house all day just to be near me
173. a nine year old counting her gifts
176. my math-deficient student making the math olympics team
177. a sore body reminding me of the laughter & spark in my girl’s eyes from a night game of tag
178. tender words from a friend
179. a great morning of coffee with a friend, we decide to meet again at lunchtime
182. blessings from Blissdom
183. 75 degrees in February
184. sweet song birds in the early morning
185. babygirl snoring softly beside me

How about you? Are you counting it all joy? A Joy Dare to give all glory to Him?
