Reading Rekindled

9/14/11....but not as an eBook on a Kindle or Nook, or iPad but with a real book. I gave the book One Thousand Gifts to a dear friend----not one of "the" gifts that I mentioned yesterday that I will be distributing for this next year---though I do feel that the gift was God ordained. He had me buy the book in Dallas to give away, even though I had never read it. That's a big "no-no" for me. To date I have read parts, but my friend has read it and it has ministered to her in a big way. She told me about the website/blog of the author---a "Holy Experience. Said author is a talented writer, young, married to a farmer and homeschools six kids, not exactly my peer, but her blog has a way of sharing God's grace regardless of age. What I like is that she focuses on seeing life as a "gift" and encourages everyone to live fully where ever God has placed them.
It has rekindled my interest in reading this book in its entirety because seeing gifts from God and passing them on is my new pursuit of sorts.
