NIV Journaling the Word Bible for Women ~Book Review

The "NIV Journaling the Word Bible for Women" is a bit different than other journaling Bibles. one of the biggest changes is that is has 500 journaling prompts.They are specifically created to help you think about Scripture. The words of Jesus are written in red. It is also in the exclusive Zondervan NiV Comfort Print typeface. The cover is cloth over board in a beautiful shade of navy. The navy is set off with a fresh coral & gold leaf. The carol theme is featured throughout the pages of the Bible.
This particular journaling Bible is perfect for the avid Bible journaler or the beginner. I think it is also great for someone who just wants to have a Bible where they can keep the more private conversations & revelations in their relationship with Jesus. The "NIV Journaling the Word Bible for Women" is a lovely gift for women of all ages. I lead a Bible Journaling class at my church & I think I am going to be using the prompts in my class. I know that it will help us all dig deeper. I can't wait to share this with my class!

I received this Bible from Book Look Bloggers for my honest review.

The commanders and the trumpeters were by the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets while the singers with musical instruments were leading the praise.  2 Chronicles 23:13 #lovepinklucysbible #illustratedfaith #dayspring #revivalcamp2018 #danceparty #dancepartywithjesus #discoball

Love this quote from the Revival Camp 2018 devo "Leadership."

"God hasn't created a single one of us without a talent or gift so graciously & perfectly embedded within."

For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

One thing about my Granny is that she always saved the day. When I bought this shirt recently & it wasn't black! Ha! I didn't think about the fact that it has gold shimmer & I don't wear gold. So as I got ready this AM for church, I realized that I didn't have earrings to match. Then I remembered these that have been in my jewelry box since Granny passed away. Her Avon earrings from the '80's. And once again 20+ years after her leaving this earth she is saving the day. Thanks Granny! #granny #avon #1980s #1980searrings #1980savon #savedtheday

I thought that I would share a little of my story. Raised in church. Saved at 15. Ministry School. Ministry. Loved Jesus with my whole heart. Read my Bible. Listened to worship music. But bitterness had set in. It creeped in & before I knew it. Then I had spent years away from church. I never strayed from Jesus. My love didn't waver. But bitterness had encompassed my heart & my attitude. I became an excuse maker. An "I can be a Christian without church" person. I surrounded myself with others who were bitter, because ya know...misery sure loves it some company. 

Finally my eyes were opened & bitterness slowly began to release it's grip on me. The Lord used Bible Journaling & art to help with that. Then there was church. It became a part of my life again. Now it's my 2nd home. This morning as I walked the halls, foyer, sanctuary, coffee shop...I waved, greeted, blew air kisses, laughed & hugged person after person. My heart was so completely full of joy that it literally felt like it would just burst!

I felt the Holy Spirit nudged me to share this...don't waste time getting to your joy! No matter how much of a Christian you think you are, there may just be some junk standing in the way of all of the goodness that He has for you! I know that today I walked in what the scripture calls "Fullness of Joy." It's available to all of us. And it's completely worth getting to, no matter our circumstances.  💗

Illustrated Faith - Revival Camp 2018 Kit 3 - Review & Tutorial

Oh my. This first devotional in the 3rd #revivalcamp2018 written by Elaine from Illustrated Faith by DaySpring had me in tears. Such powerful words! These got me like 😭 “He made us WHOLE in our EMPTINESS.”

Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:8-10

On this day 67 years ago a ragamuffin girl named Vickie Lynn, came into the world. And little did the world know that she would grew into a fiercely powerful strong woman, who tackles things with her own flair. Not to mention the wonders she does with a needle & thread! 

I'm so glad that you were born, Mom!

Happy 67! May this be your best year yet!

Ours for a Season ~ Book Review

Kim Vogel Sawyer takes use to another place once again with her beautiful way with words, "Ours for a Season." This time it is to an Old Order Mennonite sect, in Indiana. And the characters are Anthony & Marty Hirschler. They have never been able to have have children. Because of this it has caused a wedge between them. In their community baring children is a huge part of who everyone is. They begin to feel that that have no purpose. The along comes Marty old friend, Brooke Spalding. She has a proposal for the couple. To move to Kansas & help revitalize a ghost into a resort.

The Hirschler's take Brooke up on the offer & life in Kansas brings heartbreak, struggle, healing & hope for all of them.

Kim Vogel Sawyer loves the people that she creates on the pages...There is no doubt about that. Each one is uniquely crafted & they draw you in.
