Fearless - Max Lucado



This book couldn't have come at a better time. Really, though, everyone has some sort of fear, so anyday could be a good day with this book in hand.

While being unemployed for nearly two years and endless job searchs, I feared I would never be able to do what I really wanted to do. This book showed me that what I was already doing was just what God intended me to be doing at this time. It showed me that I have to take each day as it comes and not fear the unknown.

This book helped me see that while things aren't always as you would want them to be, they are in fact how God wants them to be for you. It has always been said that God won't give you anything you can't handle, and while reading this book, I now know how to believe it!

"Same Kind of Different as Me"



I received this book in the mail yesterday and could not put it down. It truly is a wonderfully written and captivating read. This book takes you on a wonderful journey of how people can come together. The story is told by each individual, and that alone shows you that there are always two sides to every story, which is easily forgotten in the day to day loving. This book will greatly tug at your heart strings and is a wonderful read!

Wonderful Read.



This month's book from Booksneeze.com (if you aren't a member, I suggest joining!) took me on a 33 day devotional. The chapters of this book are short, 4-5 pages, and are a breeze to go through. If you take the time to read it daily, you will not be disappointed.

This book has a fun, fresh wit about it and it will keep you wanting more. Every chapter has personal experiences and it's great to see the light of the "Kaleidoscope" through someone else's eyes to really shed light on your own life.
