A childhood friend recently created a Facebook page to
record memories from our neighborhood elementary school. The stories being posted take me back to events almost forgotten and people of long ago, the majority
of whom have not been a part of my life for decades.

Precious Memories--Places of Grace
Who and what do you remember from your childhood? Adults who
influenced and loved you? Kids down the street who played in your yard?
Teachers and schoolyards? Birthday parties and sleepovers? Relatives now gone?
Friends who tragically died too young?

Maybe 30 Gifts?
November is the month of Thanksgiving here in the U.S. when
we pause to thank God for his blessings. Rather than focus on being grateful
only one day, I plan to thank God for one of his gifts in my life each day this
month, centering on one particular blessing.
If you have read or heard about
the premise of 1000 Gifts by Ann Voskamp, you may
have been overwhelmed with the idea of reflecting on so many gifts, even
wondering if you could think of that many!
