Here is the song that inspired, not only the name of this blog, but also the heart and intent behind Tuesdays Unwrapped. It is fitting that it is simply entitled Tuesday. Listen while you unwrap today?
So today is our Tuesday. But I hope that the Tuesday heart is rubbing off on your Wednesdays and Saturdays and Fridays, too. It is the day we gather to pause and unwrap the gifts to be found in the daily minute. We take a moment to stop, to notice, and maybe even chat at the sky.
If you would like to join in, welcome! If you have questions, check out the information on my Tuesdays Unwrapped page. If you are reading in a reader, you may have to click over to see the links and I really hope you read at least a few. So happy here on my favorite day of the week. Join us?
What a beautiful inspiration!

I’m thankful you began Tuesdays Unwrapped. It has made me stop and take note of the everyday happenings in my life. Just to slow down and breathe. Although I had read about the song here, I had never heard it. Thanks for sharing it. Blessings, Emily.

Listening to the song as I put the finishing touches on my post today I cried. I became more convinced of how important it is to pause, and not only celebrate, but capture images and feelings of moments that just may change history. Or maybe it is simply a moment to celebrate love for another.

Never listened to “Tuesday” before–my loss. Your blog title has always made sense to me; now it does even more.
One of my summer reads was a book from my dear Richard Foster and Gayle Beebe. It’s called Longing for God. Listen to this little bit from the book’s introduction:
“Across time and throughout history, God’s love has touched countless people. Often these encounters awaken a spiritual longing in us and we begin to seek this love more fully and to have it always present in our lives. No matter which approach or path we take, God’s presence experienced in fleeting moments creates a longing for God’s continual presence that never ends. But history reveals that our desire for this love is seldom fully satisfied.
“And why does this longing seem so dormant today? In a word, distraction.”
Touche’.
Thank you for calling us away from the distractions, calling us to stop and chat at the sky.
You’re great. I love you.

Not unwrapping today (well, I am, but not in words!), but still stopping by to say hi. I am listening to Tuesday at work — very cool!

Thanks so much for hosting this great link party! I’m finally starting to share more of our Adoption journey so I thought that would fit in today!

I’ve never heard this song before…thanks for sharing. And thanks for Tuesdays. I haven’t been here in a while. I haven’t been out here for a while at all. I hope you’re doing well and that the books are coming along…I’m so out of touch I don’t even know where you’re at with things these days!

I needed to hear that song today. I needed to take some time. Thanks for hosting in a place where I can just relax and appreciate things.

Emily….Thank you for the gift of this beautiful song!! I have never heard this song before but have listened to it at least 10 times before posting this. Love you blog so very much and always look forward to seeing a new post when I open my emails.
xxxxxxx
I LOVED Sarah Masen as a teenager, and Tuesday was my fav song of hers. I have wondered if that’s where your blog name came from…so glad to know now!
emily, this is such a great thing you’ve done. i start thinking about tuesday on tuesday night!! and we become what we focus on… i’m suddenly looking for all the little, often overlooked blessings in my life and -though i knew on a certain level- have become so much more aware of the abundance of blessings in my life. thank-you for that!! xoxo
