Are you filled with thanksgiving? Do you want to connect with gratefulness despite feeling anything but? The colouring pages in Count Your Blessings in Color are designed specifically for prayers of thanksgiving and gratitude. With this coloring book for grown-ups, you can record your blessings while listening in a visual creative way to what they may have to tell you—and create something beautiful while you're at it! Colour anywhere—at home, on a park bench, on a road trip—whenever you need to take a break and slow down.

Colouring is both prayerful and playful. It gives me a new way to be with God and the permission to not have words. With a handful of coloured markers and pencils I become childlike—a useful attitude for prayer. While my hand and eyes move across a colouring page, my mind and body slowed down. I enter a proverbial prayer closet, carving out a space and place for silence and an opportunity for God to speak.
