Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I was inspired by Cami's story, though my husband and i tend to be givers, we have just come off 2 difficult years financially where we pulled back on our giving. I was feeling a bit stressed and worried about money I found myself holding on to our money instead of giving. The more I tried to hold on to our money the worse I felt. It was only when I decided to fully trust in God and let go that I began to feel better and good things started to happen in our life. Cami's story reinforces that belief and I love that for 29 days you focus on giving and that it's not about giving money but giving of ourselves in many ways. Letting go really does free you up to receive the blessings God has in store for each of us.
What I'd most like to receive:
I'm not looking to receive anything that i could specifically name, I think i am going to just enjoy receiving the blessings that come my way and be thankful for each of them. I am very thankful to Cami and Embali for sharing the 29 Gifts idea and encouraging so many people to reach out and give.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
I randomly choose the audio book 29 Gifts and loved it
