More quotes by Ann Voskamp
Like the wind, Grace finds us wherever we are and won't leave us however we were found.
Ann Voskamp
I am a hunter of beauty and I move slow and I keep the eyes wide, every fiber of every muscle sensing all wonder and this is the thrill of the hunt and I could be an expert on the life full, the beauty meat that lurks in every moment. I hunger to taste life. God.
Ann Voskamp
God can enter into me, even me, and use these hands, these feet, to be His love, a love that goes on and on and on forever, endless cycle of grace.
Ann Voskamp
Of asking nothing of the reader - but offering a still, quiet oasis in the cybersphere to go vertical with God. An island of stillness to know that He is God.
Ann Voskamp
Are stress and worry evidence of a soul too lazy, too undisciplined, to keep gaze fixed on God?
Ann Voskamp
In a storm of struggles, I have tried to control the elements, clasp the fist tight so as to protect self and happiness. But stress can be an addiction, and worry can be our lunge for control, and we forget the answer to this moment is always yes because of Christ.
Ann Voskamp
God’s purposes are not for me to understand His plans: His plan is for me to understand Who He is.
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
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
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
As long as thanks is possible, then joy is always possible.
Ann Voskamp
When we lay the soil of our hard lives open to the rain of grace and let joy penetrate our cracked and dry places, let joy soak into our broken skin and deep crevices, life grows. How can this not be the best thing for the world? For us?
Ann Voskamp
What if I gave thanks in the trouble, for the trouble, because the trouble is a gift that causes me to turn? What if I loved God not for His goods but for His love itself that is goodness enough?
Ann Voskamp
When the heart and mind focus on things unseen - that's when there's a visible change in us.
Ann Voskamp
Every mountain that every Christian ever faces, the Lord levels with sufficient grace.
Ann Voskamp
Pantheism, seeing the natural world as divine, is a very different thing than seeing divine God present in all things
Ann Voskamp
You love as well as you are willing to be inconvenienced.
Ann Voskamp
I want to see beauty. In the ugly, in the sink, in the suffering, in the daily, in all the days before I die, the moments before I sleep.
Ann Voskamp
Sometimes you don’t know when you’re taking the first step through a door until you’re already inside.
Ann Voskamp
Can God be counted on? Count blessings and find out how many of His bridges have already held.
