Our Sins or Our Savior: Parish Sermons (1879)

Are you a list maker? Hereas a list for you! I began journaling a book of my dreams, hopes and ideas, giving me reasons to live, and to help me not to give in to the deep, dark world that had become my life, day in and day out for more than a decade. Within these pages are those reasons that I chose to liveafive hundred and five reasons to wake up each day, greeting the sunshine with a gradual spring in my step and a hopeful heart. Bible verses seemed to flow within the reasons to liveawithout God in my hopes and dreams, my life wasnat one to be truly lived each day. I continued to find verses that gave new meaning to ajust living.a Adding a sprinkling of inspirational poetry seemed to give living a whole new meaning. Then I began to laugh, seeing many of the five hundred and five reasons come to fruition.
