blessed, v.3




Here's to thanking God for his simple, mundane blessings that we don't always see:

adventures
wind-whipped hair
brewing cinnamon on the stove
cheeky grins
woolly sheep
the wind's whisper
grainy photographs
adventures
cows grazing
drip, drops, plip, plops of rain on the window pane
dancing
leaves - crisp and crunching - underfoot
glossy new schoolbooks
handwritten essays
long, contemplative walks in the woods
people like you
journaling
a cup of tea cradled in hands
warm beds
God's goodness and faithfulness
letters in the post
the smell of books
nighttime
 I'D LOVE YOU TO DO A BLESSED POST, TOO... WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN IN? - POST YOUR OWN 'BLESSED' LIST, LINK UP TO THIS POST ON CAPTURE LIFE, AND THEN LEAVE A COMMENT TELLING ME YOU DID SO.  
Enjoy God's simple, everyday blessings!

    1. Oooh, no! Unfortunately, not. :) They graze near a field quite near us, though... Does your family own any cows?

      Thank you for your sweet comment!

  11. I can pretty much relate to everything in your list, except for the woolly sheep... Each photo is so different, besides the cows, but flows together so nicely. Lovely post.

  12. Lovely photos, Acacia. They're so beautiful. I think I'm in love with your photography. <3
    I have posts similar to this (in fact I posted one today). I call them my Little Notes of Joy. If I made a post that listed everything I thanked God for, it would be very, very, very long. (Maybe that's why my prayers are extensive)
    Wonderful blog, wonderful words. You've made my day! <3
