More quotes by Ann Voskamp
Gratitude for the seemingly insignificant—a seed—this plants the giant miracle.
Ann Voskamp
Life is so urgent and necessitates living slow. It's only the amateurs-and that I've been, and it's been ugly-who thinks slow and urgent are contradictory.
Ann Voskamp
Sometimes, too often, I don't want to muster the energy. Stress and anxiety seem easier.
Ann Voskamp
The greatest compliment of the book [One Thousand Gifts]? Maybe the Muslim man in Iraq who was given the book and came to a saving knowledge of Jesus, wanted to live his life in thanks to God?
Ann Voskamp
So my blog wasn't about platform but really, it was everything you are not supposed to do in blogging.

Darkness transfigures into light, bad transfigures into good, grief transfigures into grace, empty transfigures into full. God wastes nothing – ‘makes everything work out according to his plan.’ (Ephesians 1:11).
Ann Voskamp
Gratitude is the most fruitful way of deepening your consciousness that you are a divine choice.
Ann Voskamp

You, who were made by Love, made for love-- be still and know and watch love come down.
Ann Voskamp
Gratitude is not only a response to God in good times - it's ultimately the very will of God in hard times. Gratitude isn't only a celebration when good things happen. It's a declaration that God is good no matter what happens.
Ann Voskamp
I began [blogging] because I have this handicap - I can't figure out my life or see God clearly unless I untangle my life again with words.
Ann Voskamp
What was intended to harm, God intended it all for good. And no matter what intends to harm you, God's arms have you. You can never be undone.
Ann Voskamp
God lays down all of His fullness into all the emptiness. I am in Him. He is in me. I embrace God in the moment. I give Him thanks and I bless God and we meet and couldn't I make love to God, making every moment love for Him? To know Him the way Adam knew Eve. Spirit skin to spirit skin.
Ann Voskamp
Grace is the only thing that is ever enough.
Ann Voskamp
I wonder if the greatest challenges was to keep pressing into [writing] when I had never been here before. I felt like Abraham - being called to something that he didn't know how to get to.
Ann Voskamp
God’s purposes are not for me to understand His plans: His plan is for me to understand Who He is.

I want a life that makes music - not just practices the piano.
Ann Voskamp
Joy and pain, they are but two arteries of the one heart that pumps through all those who don't numb themselves to really living.
