Blogs I love

I don't get the time to post and write the way I want to.  But I do take the time to read some of my favorite blogs. 

You will be inspired to the bones if you jump over here and read the LPL blog.  Your funny bone may be tickled a time or two as well.  Her daughter also has her own blog.

Someone who is such an inspiration at what she is doing for young expecting mothers in Africa can be found over here.  She may even give you a bed if you get over there today (8/25/11).

That's enough for today - I'll share some more soon.  I do happen to read lots and lots of them!

God's Love Letters to you by Dr. Larry Crabb (a review)

Dr. Larry Crabb is a well known physochologist, seminar speaker, Bible teacher, author, and founder/director of new Way Ministries.  This was my first book to read penned by Dr. Crabb.  He is certainly a teacher by way of his writing.  He doesn't offer fluff with the book God's Love Letters to You.  He offers lessons and just enough food to make you hungry for more. 

Love Letter's is a 40 day devotional based on 40 books from the Bible.  Day Eighteen is written from Habakkuk.  The key verse is Habakkuk 2:1 and says "I will stand my watch and set myself on the rampart, and watch to see what He will say to me, and what I will answer when I am corrected."  He states that only those who struggle in confustion and wait in hope will be strengthened to struggle well and to wait with confidence.  He encourages us to struggle well when we face struggles and wait in Hope.  What a powerful message from one day of this wonderful book of encouragment. 

I love the book and would recommend it to anyone wanting to dig deeper in scripture.  You can't read this book and not need to dig deeper.  In my opinion, it is not written for immature Christians.  It is written for those who wish to grow and learn.

I was provided a copy of this book from Booksneeze.com in exchange for my review.  My review is my opinion and I was not asked to write a favorable review.
