Help Me with a Project (Please)

I'm writing this today to see if I can enlist some help, especially from those engaged in social media and/or in the blogging community.

As part of my blogiversary month, I had ambitious plans for multiple giveaways and other exciting things.  Needless to say, I fell a little short, but one of the plans I made is still going to happen! I've been working on this project the past month and I want to share it with you now.

I have lots of ideas, but I'm sad to say that most never see the light of day.  This one came to me and I knew I couldn't let it pass by.  I was determined not to let the "what if's" or "how's" stop me because I feel it is so worthwhile and important.

Here's what we know:
  • Many Christians drift through life not understanding the power of praise and giving thanks
  • People are often "too busy" to meditate on God's goodness and blessings
  • We can get so caught up with what we don't have that we miss what we do have

What I'm proposing as a part in combating this is what I'm calling, The Everyday Testimony Project.  You and I both know it's easy to celebrate the big things, the great miracles that take place in our lives.  We praise then and rightly so!  But what about the everyday, small miracles—when we get all our bills paid, when our child stays well in the midst of a sick school, when that old car makes to work and back one more time…

God is worthy of our praise every single day.  I believe there is a testimony for every single day, but we have to be willing to look for it.  Some days that’s easy and others not so much, but developing a heart of gratitude will serve us well for the rest of our lives and we can encourage each other with our everyday testimonies.

So how am I asking for your help?



I’m very excited about this as I believe this is something God will use to bring glory to His name as well as strengthen the weary.  We can encourage each other in the big and the small things, but we have to recognize the tremendous testimony that’s there.

Will you join me? Thank you in advance for however you choose to participate!
