Blessing Board.

When you live in a house with 7 people, there tends to be a lot going on at any given moment. So much so, that more often than not, it's hard to keep up with everyone throughout the week. There is always something new going on or happening.

To stay connected, our house makes a point to get together every Sunday night and talk about our weeks, what we're struggling with, what we're learning, and how God has blessed us.

After all that, we do something fun together.

A few Sundays ago, we started talking about all the things God has done for us since moving into this big house together, and we were surprised at how much we had already forgotten after only 4 months.

And believe me, there was a lot to forget.

God's blessing has been abundant here.

So, in order to make sure that God gets credit for all the good things He does each day, we decided to create a blessing board. In a way, this board is a house standing stone, our N.C. family's little something pointing to the sky, witnessing how big our God is, and how faithful.

And it has been an amazing addition to our house. Being able to read each new thing that God has done is not only a way to praise God, but also a way to celebrate as a body together the richness of God's grace all around us.

So many times throughout the Bible God calls us to remember.

To witness.

To praise.

To notice.

To celebrate.

And with this little blessing board, we try to center ourselves around Him, and bring glory to the One who never fails to bless and provide.
