Lessons learned {From One Thousand Gifts}

"So - more of what?  The face of Jesus flashes.  Jesus, the God-Man with his own termination date.  Jesus, the God-Man who came to save me from prisons of fear and guilt and depression and sadness.  With an expiration of less than twelve hours, what does Jesus count as all most important?
"And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them..." (Luke 22:19 NIV).

 - Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts

When looking for "more" in life who better to look to than Jesus...the man who lived his life to the fullest?  What did he do when He knew time was running out?  He GAVE THANKS and GAVE to others. 

I'm pondering what this looks like in my life.
