Take his grace (Charis), give thanks for it (Eucharisteo) and receive Joy (Cara) even when we are going through a time of pain, struggle and darkness.
Take his grace (Charis), give thanks for it (Eucharisteo) and receive Joy (Cara) even when we are going through a time of pain, struggle and darkness. This study is different as it focus’ on us. She helps us understand our grace, the importance of giving thanks and through this finding our joy by recognising all the gifts that God has placed before us. In the first session Ann Voskamp shares her back story. She is a mother of six, living on a farm in Ontario, Canada with her “farmer husband”. Her pain began at age four when her little sister was hit by a truck chasing after kitten, in the lane outside her family farm boundary – everyone was devastated, including the driver who never saw her – that moment was catastrophic and changed all their lives forever. Ann is not alone, many of us have different, painful pasts. We all deal with it differently and there is no right or wrong way as everyone is different. Sometimes we learn to cope using “automatic pilot” and not thinking about it, or perhaps keeping busy and in some cases we don’t allow ourselves to remember and black it out. Sometimes it lasts a short time or it can last a long time and compound itself scaring us, because it hasn’t healed. In some cases it is still raw and affects our everyday existence having a damaging effect on our mental and physical health and wellbeing. The whole premise of the book is the idea of finding what it takes to live a “full life”. Ann explains that this can only be found through giving thanks. She begins to unpack how we can truly be thankful and she says it is through recognising the gifts the Lord has given us. Thankfulness is not a blanket that can be thrown over every area in our life. It is a practice that must be learned! She encourages us using her beautiful, poetic language and writing style to take time to see the gifts we already have.
