More quotes by Ann Voskamp
Holy joy lies in the habit of murmuring thanks to God for the smallest of graces.
Ann Voskamp
Every breath is a battle between grudgery and gratitude. Give thanks...and you win joy.
Ann Voskamp
Eucharisteo—thanksgiving—always precedes the miracle.
Ann Voskamp
Without God’s Word as a lens, the world warps
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.

In our rushing, bulls in china shops, we break our own lives.
Ann Voskamp
No one told me that it would all happen at the same hallowed time: Mothering is at once the hardest and the holiest and the happiest.
Ann Voskamp
I think God calls us to small things, to faithfulness right where we are, to just do the next thing. I was simply writing out our family stories in my online journal, scratching out what I want to remember, what I was wrestling out with God.
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
When I fully enter time’s swift current, enter into the current moment with the weight of all my attention, I slow the torrent with the weight of me all here.

The answer to deep anxiety is the deep adoration of God.
Ann Voskamp
And when I give thanks for the seemingly microscopic, I make a place for God to grow within me.
Ann Voskamp
In naming that which is right before me, that which I'd otherwise miss, the invisible becomes visible.
Ann Voskamp
Like the wind, Grace finds us wherever we are and won't leave us however we were found.
Ann Voskamp
Gratitude is at the center of a life of faith. It sounds to simple to be true, but isn't that the sign of all deep truth: so simple we're tempted to dismiss it, and so hard, it is exactly what God uses to change our hard lives.
Ann Voskamp
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
Parenting is about preparing children to get along with each other, to get along with you and without you, and that it's impossible to get along without God.
Ann Voskamp
Research actually indicates that if you write down what you're grateful for, it increases your happiness by 25 percent. And who doesn't want that? And God's word says (1 Thessalonians 5), Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. Who doesn't want to know exactly what God's will is for them?
Ann Voskamp
They say time is money, but that's not true. Time is life. And if I want the fullest life, I need to find fullest time... the busyness of your life leaving little room for the source of your life... God gives us time. And who has time for God? Which makes no sense.

Be radical about grace and relentless about truth and resolute about holiness.
