"Life is too short to not choose awe."

Ann Voskamp advises us,

Glory is always yours to witness. Life is too short to not choose awe.

Busy is a choice. Stress is a choice. Giving yourself to joy is a choice. Choose well.

...Believe that change is possible. Believe that grace works.

...Befriend endurance if you ever want to meet abundance.

Do the hard things you don’t want to do — they can be holy things that get where you want to be the most.

...Love gives. So live given. Love is a verb and that verb is give. You’ve been given so much — so how can you not live given?

Give thanks and live given — this is how you get joy.

Rise gentle and set gratefully — settle everything with relentless gratefulness.

Like the sun gives itself in a freeing surrender to the ways of God.
