Beauty in unexpected places!

Hello there! I can't believe how quickly time has flown by since I last posted! What with the school holidays and my eldest starting Secondary School, things have been busy to say the least!
But now, as Autumn has started to appear I have found a few minutes to sit and put pen to paper so to speak.

I have been really inspired by book lately called 'one thousand gifts' by Anne Voskamp all about taking the time to see all the gifts around us for which we can be thankful. Amidst the daily grind of life there are gifts of beauty and grace presented to us if only we would slow down to notice them.

So I have decided to try and slow myself down enough to find these gifts of grace on my daily journey and try and record them as I go. So with trusty notebook and camera I am on a mission to find beauty in unexpected places and choose to be more aware and thankful for the gifts that are given by the One who lavishes them upon us all.

'Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father of heavenly lights who does not change like shifting shadows.'James 1v17

Have a beauty-filled day! xxx

Beauty in the food shop on a Monday morning. I never knew Limes smelt so fresh!

Dropping a box of buttons turned into a capturing of beauty.
