Yes, scripture-reading is so important and, all too often, we (myself included) end up getting more into books and devotionals and end up missing out on God's best for us. We run all over the place seeking answers, first from one source, and then another, when all along the answers we were seeking were Rebecca Knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07867206090978570737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3521655746662374221.post-7011943273037634652018-01-17T17:49:22.765-06:002018-01-17T17:49:22.765-06:00Hi Rebecca!

I know what you mean and I have been trying to better about reading directly from scripture, as I have not always been the best about that during my devotional time.<br /><br />Your menu sounds so yummy this week!

I love Elizabeth George and her books, WOMAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART and BEAUTIFUL IN GOD'S EYES, have been my top two favorites since first discovering them nearly two decades ago. I pray that whatever happened to create such a turn in her teaching is rectified and that those final chapters are rewritten and realigned with the previous ones.

We just need to pray for them that the Lord would open their eyes and convict their hearts...and ours...in every area. We all have the potential of getting off path and, unfortunately, often do. The only sure way is to stay in the Word of God on a daily basis, maintain a close, personal relationship with Jesus Rebecca Knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07867206090978570737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3521655746662374221.post-68427081873190648502018-01-17T05:57:52.705-06:002018-01-17T05:57:52.705-06:00Sorry the author has disappointed you.

I go into the local library and do programs for the preschoolers one day a month. This month's program is called BIRDS OF A FEATHER. We will be talking about common birds that visit our feeders in the winter and making the pinecone feeders to take home.

That's so frustrating, especially when it's an author you've enjoyed before. Have fun making pinecone feeders! May I assume that it's a birding program you are doing at the library? Those are so popular at the library where I work! How can you not love those sweet little birds?

You are always such an encouragement to me! As for pinecones...I've got scads of them! If you want to send me your address I would be happy to mail you a few for birdfeeders. Just let me know!

It doesn't sound good. Amy has read several of her books for teens. I have always considered her a "safe" author. I wonder if she was depressed?<br /><br />LOVING THE SNOW!
