Omschrijving

Blessings All Around Us: Savoring God's Gifts

Blessings All Around Us: Savoring God's Gifts by Dolores R. Leckey is a warm, reflective, and spiritually rich book that invites readers to recognize and savor the everyday blessings and gifts of God in ordinary life.

Dolores Leckey, a longtime leader in lay spirituality, family ministry, and the U.S. bishops' Secretariat for Laity, Family, Women, and Youth, writes in an accessible, contemplative style. The book encourages slowing down to notice God's presence in family, leisure, relationships, nature, creativity, and the contributions of holy people across time. It blends personal reflection, Scripture, prayer, and insights from figures such as Brother Roger of Taizé, Catherine of Genoa, and others. Rather than a systematic theology, it functions as a gentle companion for deepening awareness, gratitude, and joy in the ordinary--helping readers move from busyness to a more contemplative, thankful way of living. It is ideal for personal devotion, small groups, or anyone seeking practical spirituality for lay life.

Key Points

Savoring God's gifts in the ordinary -- Encourages readers to slow down, notice, and appreciate the blessings that surround us every day--in family life, nature, work, relationships, and simple moments--rather than rushing through life.
Gratitude and awareness as spiritual practice -- Cultivating a habit of thankfulness and contemplative seeing transforms routine experiences into encounters with God's love and generosity.
Scripture and prayer as guides -- Readers are invited to pray and ponder biblical passages that reveal God's abundant gifts and presence in daily living.
Wisdom from holy lives -- Reflects on the contributions and insights of spiritual figures (e.g., Brother Roger of Taizé, Catherine of Genoa, and others) to illuminate how ordinary people can live in awareness of divine blessings.
Beauty of leisure and family -- Highlights the spiritual significance of rest, family bonds, creativity, and human relationships as sacred spaces where God's gifts are revealed.
Lay spirituality for everyday life -- The book offers practical, down-to-earth guidance for non-clergy to live a deeper, more joyful faith amid ordinary responsibilities.
From noticing to deeper union -- Moves readers toward greater trust, joy, and relationship with God by learning to "savor" rather than take for granted the blessings all around us.
Hopeful and encouraging tone -- Written as an invitation to experience God's goodness more fully, making it suitable for personal reflection, retreats, or gifting.
