HELLO WORLD!!

Perhaps I'm the last person in the world to have a blog, but that's not stopping me. This is my first post...now what to write? Hmmm...

First and foremost, I am a follower of Jesus. He lived over 2,000 years ago, but He's still alive and will always be alive! And to top that all off, HE LOVES ME! How awesome is that!!

This blog will be about how Jesus is revealed to us through the written word. No book will EVER replace the Bible. As followers of Jesus, we need to be in The Word every single day! (Am I in The Word every day? Nope, but I need to be... and so do you.)

Beyond the Bible, there are Christian books everywhere! Reference books, fiction books, mysteries, cookbooks, how to date, how to live, how to die, how to exercise, how to raise your kids, how to get old, how to stay young, how to get married, how to stay married, how to not care if you're married or not, how to work, how to be out of work, how to clean your house...need I go on? (OK, I'll stop.)

I don't have much time to read...why??

• I work 40+ hours a week at a job I love



• I volunteer one night a week, serving dinner and then worshipping with an amazing bunch of people.



• I am a wife to a challenging (yet loveable!) man who wishes I had more time (and desire) to be more like Martha Stewart. (Probably ain't gonna happen, honey.)



• I have dinner with my Home Group one night a week...we laugh, we eat, we cry, we eat, we pray, we eat.
  


• I meet one night a week with a group of women who are reading the entire Bible this year...we read and talk and pray...awesome! (Oh yeah, and we eat.)

Somehow I'm going to squeeze in some book-readin' time... somehow.

I'll be back soon with some suggestions about books to read that will bring you closer to God and will be food for your soul.

I love you, more than you know.
