best things in life are free … 31 days of enough

At the barn yesterday, I heard Memphis (featured) whinny.

I looked up and saw this.

Grass. Horse. Clouds. Sky.

I caught my breath. Then exhaled worship. Because God is so good at making life beautiful.

Always drawing gorgeous pictures with creation. Every day. Access to Master art. Free.

The best things in life are often free ~ or at least they don’t cost any money. Like smiles … :)

Every day this week as a part of the October series 31 days of enough (and you get free stuff), I’m giving away a $5 Starbucks card and a copy of Will’s book, Enough. I know a book & a Starbucks card doesn’t touch what God does in nature ~ but it’s free nonetheless. :)

To enter today’s giveaway, tell me what’s one of the best things in life that’s free?

1) Only one entry per giveaway item. 2) You are eligible to win only one item a week. 3) Entries on this item open until 5 pm (CST) on Friday 10/26/12. 4) Winners must live in the contiguous United States.

    An early fall morning, looking out my back door at fog , as the sun is gradually rising. It is the simple things that often bring such joy. God is good!
